An asteroid of mass `m` is approaching earth, initially at a distance `10R_(E)` with speed `v_(i)`. It hits earth with a speed `v_(f)` (`R_(E)` and `M_(E)` are radius and mass of earth),. Then

An asteroid of mass m (m lt lt m_E) is approaching with a velocity 12 km/s when it is at distance of 10 R from the centre of earth (where R is radius of earth). When it reaches at the surface of Earth, its velocity is (Nearest Integer) in km/s

What will be the change in potential energy of a body of mass m when it is raised from height R_E above the Earth’s surface to 5/2 R_E above the Earth’s surface? R_E and M_E are the radius and mass of the Earth respectively

An asteroid was fast approaching the earth. Scientists fired a rocket which hit the asteroid at a distance of 5 R from the centre of the earth (R = radius of the earth). mmediately after the hit the asteroid’s velocity (V_(0)) was making an angle of theta=30^(@) with the line joining the centre of the earth to the asteroid. The asteroid just grazed past the surface of the earth. Find V_(0) [Mass of the earth = M]
