Assuming a roughly spherical shape and a density of 4000 kg/m3, estimate the diameter of an asteroid having the average mass of 1017 kg.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Density of asteroid,

Mass of asteroid,

We need to find the diameter of the asteroid. The formula of density is given by:

V is the volume of spherical shaped asteroid,

r = 2441311.12 m

Diameter = 2 × radius

d = 4882622.24 m

or

Hence, this is the required solution.
