If asteroid Toutatis were to pass somewhere within 34 × 105 km of planet Syrene, what is the probability that it would strike the Syrene? Calculate the probability by considering an imaginary dartboard of radius 34 × 105 km in which the bull's-eye has Syrene's radius, 6800.0 km. Assume the radius of Toutatis is much smaller than the radius of Syrene.

Answer:

probability = 0.2 %

Explanation:

given data

imaginary radius = 34 × [tex]10^{5}[/tex] km

planet Syrene radius = 6800 km

to find out

what is the probability that it would strike the Syrene

solution

so probability will be here

probability = [tex]\frac{6800}{34*10^5}[/tex]

probability = 0.002

so we can say probability in % is 0.002 × 100

probability = 0.2 %
