When a meteor hits the earth what does it form?
When a meteor hits the Earth it forms a crater.
When an earthquake hits how can you communicate family?
the news will probably tell you a couple days before it actually happens and you could call before very bad storm hits.
What happens to a meteroid when it hits earth's atmosphere?
It burns up. Or if too big to burn completely, it will be a fireball. Do NOT try to catch them with your bate hands.
Does the moon and the earth both have craters?
Yes both bodies have craters but the Moon has many many more. That is because it has no protective atmosphere so that any old piece of rock of any size that hits the Moon will produce a crater (sometimes only a small one, other times a big one). The Earth's atmosphere causes all but the biggest meteors to burn up before they hit the ground, which means they have to be really large to cause any kind of crater. But the Earth has a few big craters.
What damage does a large meteorite cause to the earth?
it either leaves a crater or if deep enough can make lava flow out of the hole. but if the meteorite hits the core then KABOOM!
What burns up before hit hits earth?
Meteors!
Does the thermosphere block coments?
Yes it breaks it down in particles before it hits earth.
What keeps us from getting pelted by asteroids all of the time?
Most asteroids orbit the sun in the asteroid belt, which is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. They are, therefore, far away from Earth, many millions of miles, and their orbits are not going to intersect the orbit of Earth. If a Asteroid Dose come to earth, Earth's Force Field will destory it before it hits land.
How many years before a comet hits earth?
That is completely unpredictable at this time. Best can be said is probably not this week.
What is the first place in the Earth that sunlight hits?
that's actually the equator
Where can a meteor be found in the solar system?
By definition, a meteor is in the earth's atmosphere. Before it hits the atmosphere it's called a meteoroid, and after it hits the ground it's called a meteorite.
How does height affect force?
Since force equals mass x acceleration (F=MA), the greater the height of a dropped object the more it will accelerate before it hits the ground, so the greater the energy it will hit with. So, more height, more energy. If one wants to stop a certain object with a certain amount of energy in a given time span, one needs more force if the energy level of the object is higher. Another aspect is that force decreases with height (measured from earth): mass is constant, but gravitational constant decreases with distance to earth.
What happens to the sunlight that hits the surface of the Earth?
Sunlight that hits the Earth's surface is absorbed by the Earth. It is then reflected back.
After it hits earth a meteoroid is called a?
After it hits Earth, a meteoroid is called a meteor.
When a meteor hits the earth what does it form?
When a meteor hits the Earth it forms a crater.
How does the weight of a toy car affect the distance it travels?
Gravity, the heavier the object the more force gravity has on it, and the faster it can accell before the force of friction (from the wheels, road surface and air) equal the force of gravity till it hits is maximum speed.
What is the force applied when a large linebacker hits another player?
the force when a linebacker hits another player si gravity
