9 - Asteroids etc.
What are the chances of a catastrophic impact with Earth and an asteroid?
What would happen if a small asteroid only 500 feet in diameter hit the center of Somerset County, NJ?
Homework Answers
Chances of catastrophic impact is very low and on an average it may take more than 100 million year for such type of catastrophic impact with earth that may extinct many species on earth.
Impact of 500 ft asteroid will be devastating an it will lead to loss of many lives and property but this impact will not be effective for distant place. It may lead to earth quake , sudden climate change , storm etc that have huge after effect in local area that will impact normal life

1. [12 points] Compelling evidence for the asteroid impact 65 million years ago which triggered the extinction of the dinosaurs was discovery of a thin Iridium-rich clay layer in sediments all around the world. A normal rock sample from the Earth's crust contains less than 1 nanogram per gram (or 1 part per billion) of Iridium, while the Iridium clay layer associated with the K-Pg impact contains about 3 parts per billion. (a) Assume the K-T impactor was a rocky...

1.) At what distance would a satellite orbiting the Earth be geosynchronous (orbiting the Earth once every 24 hours)? It would be geosynchronous at _________ × 104 m from the center of the Earth or __________× 104 m from the Earth's surface. 2.) Hydrogen also produces spectral lines at radio wavelengths, notably at 21.1 cm. If a galaxy is moving away from us at 9% of the speed of light, at what wavelength will we detect this line? Convert this...
In Example 34.6, we imagined equipping 1950DA, an asteroid on a collision course with the Earth, with a solar sail in hopes of ejecting it from the solar system. We found that the enormous size required for the solar sail makes the plan impossible at this
In Example 34.6, we imagined equipping 1950DA, an asteroid on a collision course with the Earth, with a solar sail in hopes of ejecting it from the solar system. We found that the enormous size required for the solar sail makes the plan impossible at this time. Of course, there is no need to eject such an object from the solar system; we only need to change the orbit. A much more pressing problem is Apophis, a 300-m asteroid that may be...

1)Now, the issue of the effect of carbon dioxide (carbon) is one that is hotly debated. You will find scientific arguments that indicate things are actually worse than the science-based models predict. And, you will find arguments that indicate the opposite. Some of these may not be well supported by science and thus do not hold up under careful scientific scrutiny. Indeed, there is some thought that even if we were to eliminate most people-induced carbon emissions promptly, Earth would...

Case 11-3: Carmichael Corporation
Discussion Questions:
What impact will Brisson’s decision to manufacture MS-7 have on
the cost structure of Stimgro for Carmichael?
Should Amanda Tellford do anything at this stage?
What alternatives are open to Amanda Tellford?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each
alternative?
What is the cost structure for Stimgro and the margin?
Since Stimgro is very profitable, with a good margin, why does
it matter if the cost of MS-7 increases?
