Problem 8.59 A NASA satellite has just observed an asteroid that is on a collision course with the Earth. The asteroid has an estimated mass, based on its size, of 5 x 10 kg. It is approaching the Earth on a head-on course with a velocity of 760 m/s relative to the Earth and is now 6.0x106 km away.
With what speed will it hit the Earth's surface, neglecting friction with the atmosphere? Express your answer using two significant figures. 15. ΑΣΦ 1 V= BANE ? m/s
