How do comets meteorites and asteroids differ?
Comets are icy bodies made of dust, rock, and frozen gases that orbit the Sun, meteorites are asteroid fragments that have entered Earth's atmosphere and landed on its surface, and asteroids are rocky bodies that orbit the Sun primarily in the asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter.
What is the connection between meteorites and comets?
There is no connection, comets for the most part are large frozen blocks, mostly frozen water and they come from beyond Pluto, meteors are large pieces of rock and metal, and meteorites are meteors that reach our atmosphere and are usually quite small by the time they hit earth
What makes up frozen lumps of gas and rock?
Frozen lumps of gas and rock, such as comets, are made up of a mixture of ice, dust, and rocky material. The ice component typically includes frozen water, ammonia, methane, and carbon dioxide, while the rocky material consists of silicate minerals and organic compounds. Together, these substances form the nucleus of a comet.
What is a mass of frozen gas and dust?
Most likely you are referring to a Nebula, but there are other astronomical objects made of a cloud of dust.
What is the effect of non frozen water on mass?
Non-frozen water has no effect on the mass of a material because the mass remains constant regardless of its state as a liquid or solid.

What material is made of frozen water in Antarctica?
The name of the material is ice.
Did the Russian meteor 2013 land in a dam?
No. The meteor broke up into fragments that fell across rural areas. One of the larger fragments may have fallen into a frozen lake, but did not hit a dam.
Why do rocks fragments carried by glacier not lose their sharp edges?
The rocks are frozen solid therefore there Sharp edges are not lost
In what material does frozen water malt the fastest in?
metal

Why does steel shrink when frozen?
When steel is frozen, the molecules lose energy and move closer together, causing the material to contract or shrink. This contraction is due to the reduction in thermal expansion as the temperature decreases, resulting in a more compact arrangement of the steel's atoms.
Why is ice a good material for cooling objects?
cos its frozen water

You're thinking of ice.
What material is widely produced in Antarctica by frozen water?
You're thinking of ice.
