Scientists observe an approaching asteroid that is on a collision course with Earth. They devise a plan to launch a rocket that will collide with the asteroid
inelastically and stop it. The mass of the asteroid is 7500 kg, and it is
approaching Earth at 85 m/s. If the rocket has a mass of 900 kg,
approximately what velocity must it have to completely stop the asteroid after
collision?
A. 151 m/s
B-305 m/s
C. -708 m/s
D. 68 m/s
