This question needs research to be answered. From the given information alone it can't be answered without making wild assumptions.
Ideally, you need to take a look at a distribution (or a histogram) of asteroid diameters, identify the "mode" of such a distribution, and find the corresponding diameter. That value will be the answer.
I am attaching one such histogram on asteroid diameters from the IRAS asteroid catalog I could find online. (In order to get a single histogram, you need to add the individual curves in the figure first). Eyeballing this sample, I'd say the mode is somewhere around 10km, so the answer would be: the diameter of most asteroid from the IRAS asteroid catalog is about 10km.
Option(a) the mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1 is the right answer.
The mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1 is correct about the mass of cart 2.
Let's demonstrate the issue using variables:
Let,
m1=mass of cart 1
m2=mass of cart 2
v1 = velocity of cart 1 before collision
v2 = velocity of cart 2 before collision
v' = velocity of the carts after collision
Using the conservation of momentum for perfectly inelastic collisions:
m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)v'
v2 = 0 because it is stationary
v' = 1/3*v1
m1v1 = (m1+m2)(1/3)(v1)
m1 = 1/3*m1 + 1/3*m2
1/3*m2 = m1 - 1/3*m1
1/3*m2 = 2/3*m1
m2 = 2m1
From this we can conclude that the mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1.

Wouldn't mass stay the same and acceleration increase or am I mistaken?
Answer:
They host three or more distinct ecosystems at different elevations.
Explanation:
I checked it, and its right.
If the vertical component is 29.6 m/s down, and the horizontal component
is 54.8 m/s parallel to the surface, then the magnitude of the slanty vector is
√(29.6² + 54.8²) = √(876.16 + 3003.04) = √3879.2 = 62.28 m/s .
That's 139 mph ! Wow !
