What are the two types of meteorites that hit earth?
The two main types of meteorites that hit Earth are stony meteorites and iron meteorites. Stony meteorites are composed mainly of silicate minerals, while iron meteorites are composed mainly of metallic iron-nickel.
Are all meteorites magnetic?
Meteorites fall into two classes, stony and iron. There is a belt of meteoric material near Mars, from which many of our meteorites come. Perhaps the debris from a broken planet? The iron meteorites, in fact iron-nickel mixtures, are magnetic. the stony meteorites are not. Have a look for Bode's Law in a reference source.
Is a meteorite always magnetic?
No, not all meteorites are magnetic. Only a subset of meteorites called iron meteorites are typically magnetic due to the presence of iron-nickel alloys. Other types of meteorites, such as stony or stony-iron meteorites, are not magnetic.
What are the two types of cells on earth?
Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
What two types of crusts on earth are there?
The Earth's crust is broken up into a large pieces, which are called plates. Two types of plates are oceanic and continental

What are the two types of stony meteorites?
Chondrites and Achondrites

What are the two types of stony-iron meteorites?
The two types of stony-iron meteorites are pallasites and mesosiderites. Pallasites are composed of olivine crystals embedded in a metal matrix, while mesosiderites are a mixture of silicate minerals and metal.
Is a meteorite always magnetic?
No, not all meteorites are magnetic. Only a subset of meteorites called iron meteorites are typically magnetic due to the presence of iron-nickel alloys. Other types of meteorites, such as stony or stony-iron meteorites, are not magnetic.
What two objects produce meteorites?
comets and asteroids
What are the two most abundant element in the earths core?
Although we can not see them, we know from certain meteorites (Nickel/Iron meteorites) and from the density measurements of the rocks we see at the Earth's surface compared to the mass of the whole planet that the two most abundant elements in the Earth's core must be Iron and Nickel. Iron being the predominant of the two.
What two space objects produce meteorites?
Asteroids and comets are the two space objects that produce meteorites when they enter Earth's atmosphere and survive the descent to reach the surface. Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun, while comets are composed of ice, dust, and rock.
What are the two types of cells on earth?
Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
What are two forces that are continually shaping the Earth's landforms?
The two types are erosion
What two types of crusts on earth are there?

What are the two types of movenments of the earth called?
rotation and revolution
