Hope this was correct! A lot of the answers are already in the article itself and the wording is just different. I suggest now that for information retainment, you read the article again with the correct points in mind and see if you can spot the points where the answers are stated!
Answer:
The total amount of energy that would have been released if the asteroid hit earth = The kinetic energy of the asteroid = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J = 1.29 PetaJoules = 1.29 PJ
1 PJ = 10¹⁵ J
Explanation:
Kinetic energy = mv²/2
velocity of the asteroid is given as 7.8 km/s = 7800 m/s
To obtain the mass, we get it from the specific gravity and diameter information given.
Density = specific gravity × 1000 = 3 × 1000 = 3000 kg/m³
But density = mass/volume
So, mass = density × volume.
Taking the informed assumption that the asteroid is a sphere,
Volume = 4πr³/3
Diameter = 30 m, r = D/2 = 15 m
Volume = 4π(15)³/3 = 14137.2 m³
Mass of the asteroid = density × volume = 3000 × 14137.2 = 42411501 kg = 4.24 × 10⁷ kg
Kinetic energy of the asteroid = mv²/2 = (4.24 × 10⁷)(7800²)/2 = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J
Answer:
F = 0.00156[N]
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using Newton's proposed universal gravitation law.
Where:
F = gravitational force between the moon and Ellen; units [Newtos] or [N]
G = universal gravitational constant = 6.67 * 10^-11 [N^2*m^2/(kg^2)]
m1= Ellen's mass [kg]
m2= Moon's mass [kg]
r = distance from the moon to the earth [meters] or [m].
Data:
G = 6.67 * 10^-11 [N^2*m^2/(kg^2)]
m1 = 47 [kg]
m2 = 7.35 * 10^22 [kg]
r = 3.84 * 10^8 [m]
![F=6.67*10^{-11} * \frac{47*7.35*10^{22} }{(3.84*10^8)^{2} }\\ F= 0.00156 [N]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=F%3D6.67%2A10%5E%7B-11%7D%20%2A%20%5Cfrac%7B47%2A7.35%2A10%5E%7B22%7D%20%7D%7B%283.84%2A10%5E8%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%5C%5C%20F%3D%200.00156%20%5BN%5D)
This force is very small compare with the force exerted by the earth to Ellen's body. That is the reason that her body does not float away.
