A rocky meteoroid is on a collision course with planet Earth. The meteoroid is only 0.10 m in diameter. The meteoroid will most likely not reach the surface of the Earth because?
the small size of the meteoroid will cause it to burn up in the Earth's atmosphere due to friction and intense heat generated during entry. It will disintegrate and turn into small fragments known as meteorites before reaching the Earth's surface.
What happens if a meteoroid does not burn up in the Earth's atmosphere?
If a meteoroid does not burn up in Earth's atmosphere, it can reach the Earth's surface and become a meteorite. The size and composition of the meteoroid will determine its impact and potential damage. Meteorites that reach the surface can provide valuable scientific information about the solar system's origins.
Does Meteoroids have water on its surface?
Meteoroids are small rocky or metallic bodies that do not have an atmosphere or surface water like larger celestial bodies such as planets. However, when a meteoroid enters Earth's atmosphere and burns up, any water present in the meteoroid can be released as part of the vaporized material seen as a "shooting star."
