Asteroids

Asteroids have a constant speed in a vacuum if there isnt anything else affecting it such as gravity or by colliding with other things. If it was to be in the earths atmosphere then the air would cause a resistance and slow it down :) hope this helps

Yes, asteroids can hit Saturn. Saturn, like all planets, attracts asteroids due to its gravitational pull. Some may crash into Saturn, while others may get pulled into its orbit as moons or break apart in its rings.

Asteroid belts are not individual celestial objects themselves, but rather regions in space between planets that contain numerous small rocky bodies called asteroids. These belts are typically located in the inner regions of the solar system, such as between Mars and Jupiter.

Equinoses is not a commonly recognized word in the English language. It may be a misspelling or a rare term. Can you provide more context or clarify the word you are inquiring about?

Most scientists believe that the gravitational influence of Jupiter disrupted the formation of a planet in the asteroid belt. Jupiter's strong gravitational pull prevented the rocks from coalescing into a single body by scattering them and maintaining the belt's fragmented structure.

The average distance between Juno, which is an asteroid, and the Sun is about 414 million kilometers (257 million miles). This distance can vary due to the elliptical orbit of Juno around the Sun.

Most of the asteriods that fly in space are made out of rock but SOME are make out of ice. If you have a question that goes 'Are asteriods made out of ice or rocks?' Write rocks because most asteriods are made out of them.

By the way, this website might not be the website that you will rely on because people can make up the answer.

BUT, I garuentee you, that I am NOT making up the answer but i STRONLY suggest that you search the question up again on another website to make sure that it is correct...!

:D

Meteorites are chunks of space rock that fell on earth. They are pieces of rock that can be found on the Earth surface but come from outer space. Asteroids are rocks that travel thru open space, meaning they are pieces of other planets or just boulders flying around in space. If an asteroid (small one) hits earth and is then found by someone then it is an meteorite. A comet is a boulder made of mostly ice that travels thru space at hi speeds and has a defined hyperbola around a star. So Rocks form space on earth are meteorites rocks in space flying around are asteroids and ice traveling realy fast (as a boulder) around a star is a comet.

Almost all of them are located in the "asteroid belt", this is a region between Mars and Jupiter. However, there are many asteroids all over the solar system in their own orbit around the Sun.

The third law of planetary motion published by Kepler in 1619 captures the relationship between the distance of planets from the Sun, and their orbital periods.

This supports a common notion among scientists that there was a planet between mars an Jupiter that was either not formed or disintegrated. These "stones" are the asteroids

No, they are not. They come from regions of asteroids that exist within our own solar system. Long period comets, the ones that appear once in thousands of years, probably come from the Oort Cloud, a spherical cloud of small icy asteroids believed to exist at the farthest outer reaches of the solar system. Short period comets like Halley's probably come from the Kuiper Belt, a ring of asteroids just beyone Neptune's orbit. The minor planet Pluto is the most famous Kuiper object. Not all objects in the Oort Cloud and Kuiper Belt are comets; in fact most are not.

Mars is located outside the asteroid belt. The asteroid belt is a region between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter where many asteroids are located.

Asteroids and plants are both part of the natural world, but they are very different in terms of composition and function. Asteroids are rocky objects in space, while plants are living organisms that photosynthesize to generate energy. There is no direct similarity between asteroids and plants beyond the fact that they are both found in the universe.

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

Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun, primarily found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Their movement is determined by gravity, following an elliptical path around the Sun. Some asteroids can come close to Earth due to gravitational interactions, but the vast majority of them remain in stable orbits in the asteroid belt.

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.
