Step-by-step explanation:

Impacts of large meteorites have never been observed by humans. Much of our knowledge about what happens next must come from scaled experiments. As the solid object plows into the Earth, it will compress the rocks to form a depression and cause a jet of fragmented rock and dust to be expelled into the atmosphere.
