What is the difference between comets and meteors?
Comets are flying bits of rock that don't enter the earth's atmosphere and meteors are flying bits of iron stone or stony iron. Also meteors do enter the earth's atmosphere.
Do comets or asteroids enter the earth's atmosphere as a flaming ball?
No, they start breaking down to a small rock, asteroids enter the earths atmosphere frequently.
What happens to asteroids when they enter the earths atmosphere?
Some asteroids split into peices and breaking apart as they enter the atmosphere
If earth had no atmosphere would comets still be visible from its surface?
Yes. Comets do not enter the atmosphere of the earth (we hope!). What you see is gasses that are released from the comet, illuminated by the sun. However, a meteor (shooting star) is visible only due to the atmosphere heating the meteor.
What does particles do when water evaporates?
The water particles gain energy from the surrounding environment. As this happens they move more and increase in volume, eventually this means they enter a gaseous state "float" about in the atmosphere.
What happens when particles from the solar wind enter the upper atmosphere?
I do not know for sure but I think that auroras would occur.

What part of comets or meteors are easily seen?
It is the trails they make. With comets it is the trail made by outgassing as the comet approaches and recedes from the sun. Meteors are heated by friction when they enter the atmosphere and leave a trail this way.

Yes. Comets do not enter the atmosphere of the earth (we hope!). What you see is gasses that are released from the comet, illuminated by the sun. However, a meteor (shooting star) is visible only due to the atmosphere heating the meteor.
Most meteoroids that enter Earth's atmosphere are?
Particles the size of sand grains that come from many sources
