Fellow Vortexians;
I was wondering if I could get one of you to do a mathematical calculation, as I have no clue were to start. Suppose that rocks were to start hitting the surface of the Earth. These rocks come at a proper angle so that the energy they added to the planet's rotation would not affect it's access of rotation. Further assume that the rocks come in from deep space, so that they have a high rate of speed, and that they the atmosphere at say a 45 degree angle. Assume that the rocks would each weigh 500 kilotons, The collective effect of the rock's impact would be to decrease the of number of the planet's revolutions from 365.23 to 360. The question is how many rocks would it take to accomplish this?
