Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Mass of one asteroid 1,

Mass of asteroid 2,

Initial distance between their centers,d=13.63 R
Radius of each asteroid=R
d'=R+R=2R
Initial velocity of both asteroids

We have to find the speed of second asteroid just before they collide.
According to law of conservation of momentum




According to law of conservation of energy







Hence, the speed of second asteroid =
