Large meteors can impact the earth with speeds of 80,000 km/h.If such a meteor were to impact at a point on the plane of Earth's equator,resulting in a change of Earth's angular momentum by 80 × 1012 kg • m2/s (an insignificant change,thankfully) ,calculate the mass of the meteor.(The radius of Earth = 6.38 106 m.)
A) 3.4 104 kg
B) 5.6 102 kg
C) 3.6 103 kg
D) 4.5 104 kg
E) 56 kg
