Why are meteors bigger than meteorites?
Meteors are the bright streaks of light produced when meteoroids enter Earth's atmosphere and burn up due to friction with the air. They typically start as small particles, often the size of grains of sand or pebbles, and can appear large as they streak across the sky. However, most meteoroids disintegrate before reaching the ground, resulting in meteorites, which are the remnants that survive the atmospheric entry. Consequently, meteorites are usually smaller than the original meteoroids, as only fragments make it to the Earth's surface.
Why do pebbles get bigger further away?
Pebbles often get bigger further away from their source due to the process of erosion and transportation. As water, wind, or ice move the pebbles, they tend to collide with other materials, which can break off smaller pieces or smooth their edges. Over time, larger rocks may also be more resistant to erosion, allowing them to remain intact as smaller particles are worn away. This results in a gradual increase in the size of pebbles as they are transported to new locations.
Why are the pebbles at the top of the beach bigger than the ones at the bottom?
The small pebbles are more likely to fall through the gaps between bigger pebbles than the other way around.
Can two meteoroids destroy the entire earth?
Probably not, but that would depend on the sizes of the meteoroids. Technically, meteoroids refers to fairly small-ish space rocks, up to perhaps 100 feet in diameter. Bigger than that, one would talk about asteroids rather than meteoroids. To make the entire Earth uninhabitable, it would take rocks a few MILES in diameter. The typical meteoroid is the size of a grain of rice or smaller, and the Earth hits tens of thousands of them per day. A meteoroid the size of a baseball is relatively rare; a few per week, perhaps.
Why is a bigger person's voice bigger than a smaller person's voice?

Is the moon bigger or smaller?
smaller
Is mars smaller or bigger?
smaller
Are asteroids bigger than comets?
Asteroids are generally bigger than comets, with sizes ranging from a few meters to hundreds of kilometers in diameter. Comets are typically smaller and are made up of rock, dust, and ice. However, there can be exceptions, and sizes can vary among individual asteroids and comets.
Is 0.25 bigger or smaller than 0.12?
