What the asteroids are larger or smaller than planets?
Planets are generally larger than asteroids. Asteroids are small rocky bodies that orbit the Sun, while planets are larger celestial objects that have cleared their orbit of other debris. Some asteroids can be quite large, but they are still dwarfed by the size of planets.
Is an asteroid smaller than mars?
Asteroids can be different sizes, so they can be larger or smaller than Mars.
Are asteroids larger than meteoriods?
Yes. By definition a meteoroid is smaller than an asteroid.
Are meteoroids smaller than comets but larger than asteroids?
Meteoroids are smaller than both comets and asteroids. They are small rocky or metallic objects that are typically smaller than asteroids and comets, which are large bodies that can range in size from several meters to hundreds of kilometers in diameter.
Are asteroids larger or smaller than plants?
Most of the time they are relatively small, but sometimes you get larger ones that definitly beat out plants.
How are the moons of asteroids formed?
Although many asteroids accreted through gravity and tidal interactions, their "moons" would simply be smaller asteroids or meteoroids that were caught in the gravitational pull. Unless they approach directly and collide, they can form orbits around the larger body until perturbed by some other body.
Why are there many small asteroids but only a few very large ones?
Well there are actually alot of larger astroids in our solar system, but do to their size, they may move slower or may need more force ro move them around our solars system, because of this they do not appear often unlike smaller atroids which move easily and are more abundent than larger astroids.
What is bigger meteor or asteroid?
Meteors are smaller fragments of asteroids or comets that enter Earth's atmosphere and burn up, causing a bright streak of light. Asteroids are larger rocky objects that orbit the sun. In general, asteroids are bigger than meteors.
Do stars become asteroids in space?
Stars are tremendously larger than asteroids and do not become asteroids.
Do large asteroids have moons?
They may, or may not. There do appear do be some cases where a smaller asteroid orbits a larger one, but it's certainly not always true.
Are asteroids larger than stars?
No. Asteroids are tiny compared to stars.
Are meteoroids larger than comets but larger than asteroids?
no
