Is it possible for a comet with iron in it to pass through the sun's atmosphere and destroy it and how long would it take for the sun to be destroyed by it?

A comet would not have enough iron to affect the Sun in any measurable way. Even a Jupiter-sized planet made of iron would not stop solar activity. The production of iron by a star is an endothermic fusion reaction. Any mass of iron nearing the Sun would be vaporized, and whatever entered the solar interior would circulate for many hundreds of years before any could reach the core.

How many people have been to jupiter?
None, the pressure in the atmosphere would kill them. No one has ever been to Jupiter and no one ever will because it is a Gas Giant and the craft will just go straight through it, if it were not destroyed by the winds and pressures in the atmosphere.
Is phosphorus cycled through the earths atmosphere?
phosphorus is not cycled through the earth's atmosphere
Can meteors get through the atmosphere?
Small meteors may burn up as they travel through the atmosphere, but larger ones do get through the atmosphere and land on the surface of the Earth.
Why are you protected from asteroids by other planets in the solar system?
Because God won't allow Earth to be destroyed by Men nor everything else. The atmosphere burns the asteroids through friction as they enter it at high speed.
What is beam depletion?
Atmospheric Beam DepletionIs the reduction in the amount of solar insolation as it travels through the atmosphere.when the solar angle is 90 degrees, the solar radiation passes through the atmosphere as directly as possible.
Why doesn't meteor hit the Earth's surface?
Yes, they do. Just this week (January 18, 2010) a meteor crashed through the roof of a doctor's office in Virginia and landed on the floor of the examining room. Granted, MOST meteors burn up in the atmosphere and don't survive the passage. But some do.
What will happen if the deforestation continues to destroy the green plants on the planet?
it will take the plant out of the ground and through it somewhere elts of just destroy it
How do craters not show up on earth?
Once in a great while it happens, but the great majority of meteors are destroyed as they pass through our atmosphere.
Can electricity pass through the atmosphere of earth?
Yes, it is possible. We can see the high voltage electricity can pass through the atmosphere. When cloud makes the thunder then we can see that high voltage pass through the air.
Why is it that the opening holes in the ozone layers tend to concentrate at the poles only?
The Ozone in the atmosphere is created by sunlight high in the earths atmosphere. It is destroyed naturally with time so there is a balance of Ozone in the upper atmosphere. However certain man made chemicals that we have put into the atmosphere destroy the Ozone faster and the whole Ozone level all round the earth is depleted, letting more UV radiation through to the Earth's surface. This global Ozone depletion results in holes at the poles because if you think about it for 6 months of the year the poles are not exposed to sunlight and thus no 'new' Ozone is being created to replace that which the man made chemicals have destroyed.
What can destroy herot?
Herot can be destroyed through strategies that target the vulnerability of the city, such as infiltrating the defenses, cutting off their supply lines, or overwhelming them with a large, organized attack force. Additionally, internal conflicts or betrayals among the residents of Herot could also lead to its destruction.

What is the best way of reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The best way, in fact, the only way at present, is to plant more trees. Afforestation replaces the forests we have destroyed, and growing vegetation removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis.
Is phosphorus cycled through the earths atmosphere?
phosphorus is not cycled through the earth's atmosphere
Why can't humans destroy water?
They can quite simply by passing a strong electric current through pure water. Hydrogen and oxygen gases are produced, and there is no water left. Hence, the water is destroyed.
What type of energy is transmitted through the atmosphere?
Through the atmosphere rather than by the atmosphere, then that would be electromagnetic energy.
