Suppose that you are stranded-your rocket engine has failed-on an asteroid of diameter 3 miles, with density equal to that of the earth with radius 3,960 miles. If you have enough spring in your legs to jump 4.9 feet straight up on earth while wearing your space suit, can you blast off from this asteroid using leg power alone? ft Note that the escape velocity on Earth is about 36,680 Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. (Type integers or decimals rounded to two decimal places as needed.) ft ft is less than your initial velocity when jumping, O A. Yes, you can blast off because the escape velocity of the asteroid, ft ft O B. No, you cannot blast off because the escape velocity of the asteroid, is greater than your initial velocity when jumping.
