What else can I help you with?
Dose a meteor or comet fall quickly fall to earth?
Comets, while visible in the sky, do not normally fall to Earth. Meteors do fall towards Earth very quickly.
Why can't meteors fall on earth?
They do fall on the Earth.
In which layer do most meteors disintegrate as they fall closer to earth?
mesosphere A+
Why do meteors burn as they fall to earh?
Meteors become incandescent in their fall to earth because of their high speed causing friction with the air molecules. Also the air in front of them is very greatly compressed, and thus gets hot. The ones that reach the Earth are called meteorites.
what stops the meteors from hitting the close side of the moon?
because of gravity thats why the moon does not fall to earth
Meteors are rocks from outer space that?
fall towards Earth and enter its atmosphere. As they travel through the atmosphere, they heat up and produce a glowing trail of light, known as a meteor or shooting star. Most meteors burn up completely before reaching the surface of the Earth.
Where are the asteroids when it falls?
I think they're simply called asteroids if that's what you're asking. You may be thinking of meteors though. Meteors when they're in space. Meteorites when they fall to Earth.
Which layer do most meteors disintegrate as they fall closer to earth?
Most meteors disintegrate in the mesosphere as they fall closer to Earth. The mesosphere is the layer of the atmosphere located above the stratosphere and below the thermosphere, and it is where most meteoroids burn up due to the intense heat caused by friction with the air.
Why do asteroids comets and meteors fall suddenly?
Asteroids, comets, and meteors fall suddenly towards Earth due to gravitational forces. When they come within range of Earth's gravity, they are pulled in, causing them to fall towards the planet at high speeds. Additionally, factors like orbital dynamics and collisions in space can also contribute to their sudden approach.
Meteors direction of orbit?
Meteors travels through earth. While the meteors travel towards the earth they go around the orbit.
How do meteors fall to earth if there is no gravity in space?
While there is no gravity in space, gravity from Earth still affects objects in close proximity. Meteors fall towards Earth due to its gravitational pull. As the meteor enters Earth's atmosphere, it experiences friction which heats it up and causes it to glow, creating a meteor trail.
Why is mesosphere important on earth?
because with out it meteors would hit Earth because the mesosphere kills the meteors.
