Answer:

c. $4.582\times10^{21} kg$

Explanation:

$r_{i}$ = Initial distance between asteroid and rock = 7514 km = 7514000 m

$r_{f}$ = Final distance between asteroid and rock = 2823 km = 2823000 m

$v_{i}$ = Initial speed of rock = 136 ms⁻¹

$v_{f}$ = Final speed of rock = 392 ms⁻¹

$m$ = mass of the rock

$M$ = mass of the asteroid

Using conservation of energy

Initial Kinetic energy of rock + Initial gravitational potential energy = Final Kinetic energy of rock + Final gravitational potential energy

$(0.5) m v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{i}} = (0.5) m v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{i}} = (0.5) v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) (136)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(7514000)} = (0.5) (392)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(2823000)} \\M = 4.582\times10^{21} kg$
