From a meteoroid to a meteor and meteorite: how a meteoroid enters the atmosphere to become visible as a meteor and impact the Earth's surface as a meteorite. A meteoroid (/ËmiËtiÉrÉÉªd/) is a small rocky or metallic body in outer space. Meteoroids are significantly smaller than asteroids, and range in size from small grains to 1 meter-wide objects.
Answered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time. Thomas Jefferson's job in Washington's cabinet was as Secretary of State. He was reluctant to take this position at first; however, it was hard to refuse an offer made by Geroge Washington who insisted.
Jefferson joined John Adams and Benjamin Franklin in Paris in 1784 to negotiate commercial treaties with European powers. The following year, he succeeded Franklin as Minister to France (1785-1789) before becoming Secretary of State. A founder of the Democratic-Republican Party, Jefferson was elected Vice President in 1796 and served two terms as President (1801-1809).
