As per the question, the mass of meteorite [ m]= 50 kg
The velocity of the meteorite [v] = 1000 m/s
When the meteorite falls on the ground, it will give whole of its kinetic energy to earth.
We are asked to calculate the gain in kinetic energy of earth.
The kinetic energy of meteorite is calculated as -
![Kinetic\ energy\ [K.E]\ =\frac{1}{2} mv^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Kinetic%5C%20energy%5C%20%5BK.E%5D%5C%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20mv%5E2)
![=\frac{1}{2}50kg*[1000\ m/s]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D50kg%2A%5B1000%5C%20m%2Fs%5D%5E2)

Here, J stands for Joule which is the S.I unit of energy.
If the velocity of the train is v=s/t, where s is the distance and t is time, then v=400/5=80m/s. To get the vertical component of the velocity we need to multiply the velocity v with a sin(α): Vv=v*sin(α), where Vv is the vertical component of the velocity and α is the angle with the horizontal. So:
Vv=80*sin(10)=80*0.1736=13.888 m/s.
So the vertical component of the velocity of the train is Vv=13.888 m/s.
