I already asked but forget something

If you know the mass and velocity of an asteriod can you figure out 
the crater size if it hits Earth. Also 

If you know the kinetic energy (energy of motion) of an asteroid, how 
do you figure out or convert it into other info like. heat, sound, 
seismic waves, thrown ejecta, waves upon
impact with earth.
