Is the best way to determine an asteroid's density by radar mapping spectroscopic imaging or comparing its reflectivity to the amount of light it reflects?
The best way to determine an asteroid's density involves more than just comparing its reflectivity; it typically requires a combination of techniques. Radar mapping can provide information about an asteroid's size and shape, while spectroscopic imaging helps identify its composition. To calculate density, scientists often use mass estimates derived from gravitational interactions or spacecraft measurements combined with volume estimates from radar or imaging data. Thus, a comprehensive approach is most effective for accurately determining an asteroid's density.
Why can't you determine the size of the planets?
But you CAN determine the size of the planets: in diameter, overall mass, and in density.
Can asteroids during a collision with a planet form a crater?
Yes, even the smallest asteroids can create massive craters because they are travelling at such tremendous speeds. Several variables can affect the size of the crater, including the size, speed and density of the asteroid, the density of the ground and the angle at which the asteroid strikes.
What is the density of 3cmwidth?
Not enough information. You can't determine the density of something just by measuring its size.
How great are the chances that an asteroid can hit your planet?
its a fifty fifty chance we just dont know It depends on how fast the asteroid is moving and the size of the asteroid. Then you have to consider the size of the planet (diameter, etc.), and its orbital speed, etc.
Why it is important to measure the density of cement?
to identify package size,weight=volume*density. if you know density you will know the volume of the bag.
How might density be important for a geologist examining country rock for a mining company?
density can be used for gravitational acceleration, you will need to know the density of the country rock and that of the body of interest to give you sigma which is the density change, you can then go on to work out the graph and determine the size and depth of the body.
How big of crater would 99942 apophis asteroid make?
The impact of asteroid Apophis, which is about 340 meters in diameter, would create a crater up to 5-6 kilometers in diameter if it were to hit Earth. The exact size would depend on various factors such as the asteroid's density, speed, and angle of impact.
What is the density of an average banana per cubic meter?
This varies greatly with the size of the banana in question. Determine the volume of the banana using water displacement. Determine the mass of the banana on a balance. Density = mass/volume
What would happen if an asteroid hit Asheville NC?
It would depend on the size of the asteroid.
What ranges in size one to 500 miles diameter a comet or asteroid or meter?
An asteroid
What is the size of an object determines whether it will float water?
The size of an object has little to do with whether it will float. Size relative to weight, or density, is what determines bouyancy. If the object weighs less than the amount of water it can displace, it floats.
