Asteroids

It is a huge impact crater of 180 kilometers (112 miles) in diameter, located in the northern Yucatan peninsula. After 65 million years of erosive forces, it can be hardly seen, barely being detected by measuring gravity anomalies and topographic differences nowadays.

On the other hand, the impact that created the Chicxulub crater had a destructive force equivalent to 100 teratons of TNT (7 billion times the force of the Hiroshima nuclear blast); a megatsunami of waves 5 kilometers (3 miles) of altitude and a cloud of ash and debris that covered the world for several years.

No, the gravity of the Sun primarily affects the planets and large objects in the solar system. Asteroids beyond Mars are influenced by the gravitational tug of large gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn, as well as interactions with other objects in the solar system. The Sun's gravity does play a role in the general structure and dynamics of the asteroid belt, but individual asteroids are not held in place by it.

There is no specific information or evidence suggesting a major destruction in America in the near future. It's important to stay informed through reliable sources and have emergency plans in place, but there is no imminent threat of major destruction.

AMD advertised themselves with the slogan "software for the most advanced microprocessor on this planet," referring to their microprocessors like the AMD Ryzen series.

Yes they do, they are both rocks from outer-space. They both have a nucleus and they both travel in space. The thing that comets and meteors have in common is that they all travel in space and most of them all have not changed because of their formation in the solar nebula.

The tail of an asteroid is not made of material itself. A comet can develop a temporary tail when passing close to the Sun, as the heat causes ice and gases on its surface to vaporize and create a visible tail.

An asteroid 50 miles across would be considered very large and potentially catastrophic if it were to impact Earth. Such a large asteroid could cause widespread destruction and have a significant impact on global climate if it were to collide with our planet.

Asteroids are solid rocky objects. Gas giants, like Jupiter and Saturn, are mainly composed of gas.

No, the scientific name for asteroids is not "asteroid." Asteroids are typically named based on the order in which they were discovered, followed by a designation that reflects the specific characteristics of the asteroid, such as its orbit or composition.

The famous mountaineer Junko Tabei has an asteroid named 6897 Tabeijunko and a mountain ridge in Nepal named Tabei Peak after her. She was the first woman to reach the summit of Mount Everest and the first woman to climb the Seven Summits, the highest peak on each continent. Her achievements and contributions to mountaineering have led to these honors.

lots of things are bigger than a astriod ,planets, somtimes a moon, and the biggest star in are solar system.

Asteroids are small rocky objects that orbit the Sun, primarily found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They can vary in size from a few meters to hundreds of kilometers in diameter. Some asteroids have been known to come close to Earth, but the majority stay safely in their orbit.

Asteroids generally have more eccentric and inclined orbits compared to planets, which typically have more circular and aligned orbits. Asteroids can intersect the orbits of planets and have a wider range of distances from the sun. Planets, on the other hand, tend to orbit in a more stable and predictable manner.

The fallen asteroid is often referred to as the Chicxulub impactor, named after the location of its impact on the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. This asteroid impact is believed to have contributed to the extinction of the dinosaurs around 66 million years ago.

No, Triton is not an asteroid. Triton is the largest moon of the planet Neptune. It is a unique moon in our solar system because it orbits Neptune in the opposite direction of the planet's rotation.

Mars is outside the asteroid belt. The asteroid belt is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

First, dust, debris and gases, left over from the formation of the sun and the planets.

Second, gases and radiation produced by the sun (eg. solar wind).

Third, various spacecraft and other technological artifacts, shot into space by humans (eg. the Pioneers and Voyagers launched by NASA).

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.

No, cells do not need carbon dioxide to survive. In fact, excessive carbon dioxide can be harmful and toxic to cells. Cells require oxygen for respiration, which is essential for producing energy.

it depends if you mean one that was in the asteroid belt if so then its about 3AU away and if earth is about an AU away from the sun then i would say it takes around 2 to 5 earth years to make one full revolution.

The asteroid belt is located between Mars and Jupiter and is about 2.2 to 3.2 astronomical units (AU) from the Sun.

It is not inside of the Asteroid Belt in the sense of being part of it. In terms of the order of orbits from the Sun, Mars is inside the orbit of the Asteroid Belt and Jupiter's orbit is outside the orbit of the Asteroid Belt.

Eros is believed to be primarily composed of silicate rock with some metallic components, such as iron and nickel. It may also contain traces of organic materials.

The energy of an asteroid can be determined by its kinetic energy, which is proportional to its mass and velocity squared. The potential energy of an asteroid in a gravitational field is influenced by its distance from a massive body. When an asteroid collides with a planet or another space object, the energy released can be significant and potentially catastrophic.
