As long as they near by Earth, there is no problem.
It's when they "decide" to alter their probation order and leave their nice little orbit that things get "interesting".
The main problem is because they are so close to Earth, any change - for whatever reason - it may not be detected, or if it is, the amount of time required before impact is so small that it's unlikely anyone could be warned.
The largest Apollo asteroid object is 1866 Sisyphus about the same size as the asteroid that destroyed the dinosaurs.

How do meteorites turn into?
Asteroids get caught in Earth's gravitational pull. Asteroids become meteroids when they enter Earth's atmosphere. Meteroids becomes meteors when they light up due to friction. Meteors become meteorites when they hit Earth's surface.
Was the earth once all magma?
Yes it was due to large asteroids impacting on the earth causing intense heat which in turn created magma from the rock.
Why darkness become the real killer after the asteroids impact on earth?

Hopefully, they burn up on entering our atmosphere, due to friction with the air.
Where are there problems in the ozone?

The Moon's near side always faces earth due to what?
The moon's near side always faces earth because of the definition of the word "near". If it didn't always face earth, it wouldn't be known as the "near side".
How does the earth spin round?
The earth rotates because the material gas, dust, small particles asteroids, comets etc) that formed the earth was spinning. It rotates around the sun due to the gravitational pull toward the sun, just like the moon spins around the earth due to it's gravitational connection to the earth.
What are comets asteroids and meteors with one question at a time?
Comets a planet like object going around the sun in larger elliptical orbit with greater period of revolution, asteroids are broken pieces of some planets, meteors are due to the passage of such broken pieces through atmosphere of earth due to gravity pull.
What is the acceration due to gravity?
Near Earth's surface, the acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8 meters per square second.
How is an earth pillar formed?
Earth pillars are formed when, due to weathering near mountainous regions large chunks of hillside deposit at the surface of the earth.
What problems might arise due to the earth's oceans becoming more acidic?
nothing ha
What is the accerleration due to gravity?
Near the Earth it is 32 feet per second per second.
