Billions of years ago a giant asteroid hit Saturn and got tangled up in the planet, when slowy Saturn spun around. The rings are the remain of the asteroid, ice and rock .
its a fifty fifty chance we just dont know It depends on how fast the asteroid is moving and the size of the asteroid. Then you have to consider the size of the planet (diameter, etc.), and its orbital speed, etc.
Its considered to be nothing but an asteroid that got stuck in orbit
What happened when an asteroid hit the Earth is debatable but many scientists believe that this is what may have wiped out the dinosaurs. Some people believe that the asteroid created a dust cloud that covered the planet and caused a winter that froze most life.
The most likely explanation for the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter; is that the gravitational pull of the two planet prevented another planter from forming between. Another possible explanation is that the Asteroid Belt Was once a small planet that was smashed to bits by a big comet or meteor. The debris from that destroyed small planet became the Asteroid Belt.

It was not an asteroid. It was a planet. The name starts with an 'M'.
Impact, as in hit, sure.
Scientist think that Saturn got its rings by an asteroid getting to close to the planet and the gases on the planet fused with the asteroid and caused the dusty looking rings around that planet.

Probably another planet that was there, but got smashed up by impact

There is no "impact asteroid". An asteroid impact however is when an asteroid hits a planet or moon.
An impact crater. The size depends on the mass and speed of the object and where it strikes
