At the moment it is 4 Earth radii away from the surface of our planet the asteroid is moving at 100 m/s. If it collides with our planet, how fast will it be moving right before it hits the surface? How much kinetic energy is going to be released in this collision?Hi, I am in physic I and they give me the problem The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours. The angular speed is ω = 7.3×10−5 rad/s The speed of the point on the equator is v = 460 ms They want to know what is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 2/5 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator? (Hint: what is the radius of the circle in which the point moves?) Please explain in detail how to get this because I asked before and the answer is wrong. I have one more try. Please help! Thank you!
