How often do meteors orbit?
They do not orbit at all. A "meteor" is the glowing streak of light in the sky caused when a space rock penetrates the Earth's atmosphere and is heated to incandescence through friction and compressive heating. The space rock (sometimes called a "meteoroid") is no longer orbiting the Sun, which it HAD been doing; the space rock will either explode, or disintegrate, or fall to Earth. The pieces that fall to Earth are called "meteorites". The pieces that disintegrate are called "dust".
How does a sedimentary rock contain pieces of igneous rocks?
