What meteor would make the biggest crater a big meteor or a heavy meteor or a fast moving meteor?
To put it simply, let's look at the question. Biggest (Radius), heaviest (Mass) or fastest (Velocity) The largest crater would be created by all three combined. Also, the size of the crater would be dependant on the ground it struck. A larger crater would be produced if it were a soft material like sand, whereas granite would only shatter and not make much of an impact. An object with the radius of tennis ball, would create a crater about the size of a tennis ball if dropped from say 50ft A lump of lead the size of a tennis ball would make a larger crater from the same height. A bullet travelling at 3,200 fps would make a small crater, but much larger than its initial radius or mass. So what would you rather be hit by? a) A large sheet of foam travelling at 10mph (Radius) b) A truck travelling at 5 mph (Mass) c) A bullet travelling at 3,200 fps. (Velocity) d) A bullet thrown at you (Low velocity) So, there is now way to answer the question, as all three are dependant on one another. An object with a large radius but low velocity will not make a larger crater than a massive object with a high velocity. Ditto, a massive object with low velocity will not make a larger crater than a bigger object with high velocity.
Is Mount st Helen a crater or caldera?
Mount St. Helens is considered a stratovolcano, not a crater or caldera. It erupted in 1980, causing the top of the mountain to collapse and create a horseshoe-shaped crater.
What are some crater producing events?
So far as astronomers can tell, cratering events on planetoid surfaces are caused by meteoroid or cometary impacts only. The were very, very common in the early days of our solar system, right after planet formation, and have slowed down considerably since then. The most obvious recent large crater-producing event is Meteor Crater in Arizona, believed to have been about 40,000 years ago.
How can you differentiate a meteor from a comet when you viewed from earth?
The meteor is in the atmosphere and is only visible for seconds to minutes. The comet is much further away outside the atmosphere and can be observed for weeks to many months.
Can you get super powers by getting hit by a meteor?
Only If you Say Gullable Really Slowly. Or if you call Aliosn Broadbent
What south eastern Kentucky city is the only city to be built within a crater in the us?
Middlesboro, Kentucky.
What is the evidence the meteor crater is eroding?
meteor crater will only erode if there is some natural source such as wind or water eroding it. Since most planets besides our own do not have an atmosphere or water this process is not available. On the Earth a crater eroding would be evidenced with erosion type qualities such as furrows from water a filled crater bottom and a rounded off top.
What made meteor crater unique?
The only thing "unique" about Meteor Crater, in Winslow, Arizona, is that it is perhaps the most thoroughly "classic" example of a meteor crater. It's relatively recent in a geological perspective, only about 60,000 years old. It happened on land, in an area not normally subject to extensive weathering. It was the first crater to be recognized as a crater caused by a rock falling from the sky. Thomas Jefferson was quoted as saying that he would rather believe that Yankee professors would lie, than believe that rocks fell from the heavens. But he was wrong. Meteor Crater was so OBVIOUSLY made by a falling rock. There are newer craters, and there are bigger craters. The Earth has been bombarded by falling rocks throughout its long and violent history. There is a crater in France that is a hundred miles across, so big that you can't see it from the ground; it just looks like old eroded mountains. But this is the stereotypical example.

Where and what size is the largest meteor crater in the world?
A meteor only hits the Earth's atmosphere, not the Earth itself. When it impacts the Earth's surface, it is called a meteorite. The largest meteorite crater in Australia is the Wolfe Creek crater which is also the second largest meteorite crater in the world. The crater has a diameter of about 875m, and is over 50m deep. Originally, it was about 150m deep, but windblown sand, gypsum and calcite has filled in the crater over time, and given the floor of the crater a smooth, flat surface. The Wolfe Creek Crater lies on the northeastern edge of the Great Sandy Desert, about 90 km south of Halls Creek in north Western Australia. It can only be reached by an unsealed road that joins the Tanami Rd, 145km south of Halls Creek. The journey from Halls Creek takes between 1.5 and 2 hours.
Another word for crator?
A "crater" : a hole or pit, caused by an impact (meteor or falling object), explosion, or volcano. Synonyms : cavity, hollow, depression, abyss (volcano only : caldera)
Is the Kentucky river only in Kentucky?
No it is not only in Kentucky, I looked it up and it goes through Ohio
What is a fact about the Negev Desert?
The Negev Desert in Israel is the only desert in the world (other than the Sinai Desert) that has the unique geological formation called a Makhtesh. A makhtesh appears to be a crater, but is actually a formation caused by erosion, instead of meteor impact.
Can you teach Mew Draco meteor?
No, Draco Meteor can only be taught to a dragon type Pokemon.
Do any Pokemon learn Draco meteor naturally?
No, Draco meteor can only be learnt from the move tutor
Can flygon learn Draco meteor?
Yes, only Dragon-Type Pokemon can learn Draco Meteor*. Flygon is Dragon and Ground type. In all games, Draco Meteor needs to be taught- no Pokemon can learn Draco Meteor by leveling up. This is where the Draco Meteor move tutor is (note, Draco Meteor is only available in Generation IV onwards); Diamond/Pearl/Platinum- Lady in House on Route 210 HeartGold/SoulSilver- Blackthorn City Black/White- Iris in her house in Opelucid City *Jirachi can know Draco Meteor from an event. Smeargle can Sketch Draco Meteor Arceus can only learn Draco Meteor when it is holding the Draco Plate. When this is removed, Arceus still knows Draco Meteor. Also, Draco Meteor can only be taught when the Pokemon's happiness is very high.
How do you get to Steven in meteor falls in ruby?
Steven only appears at Meteor Falls in Pokémon Emerald.
