What else can I help you with?
Does jupter have gravity and a atmosphere?
Gravity: Of course it has gravity. Any planet - moreover, any object that has mass (mass is what you measure in kilograms) has gravity. Atmosphere: You might say that Jupiter consists only of atmosphere. It is a gas giant, just as Saturn, Uranus, or Neptune. Specifically, it doesn't have a surface on which you might stand.
How does gravity affect mas and weight?
gravity can make an object weigh more or less depending on the gravity level. eg on earth you might weight 10 pounds and on mars you might weight 15 pounds but mas does not depend upon gravity.
How does gravity on Jupiter help humans?
Jupiter has been called the "vacuum cleaner" of our solar system. Jupiter's powerful gravitational pull has likely cleared our system of many stray asteroids, comets and various space debris that might have otherwise collided with Earth. So, the gravity of Jupiter helps humans by clearing our system of dangerous object that might have impacted Earth, causing localized destruction or possibly global catastrophes if the impact would have been large enough.
Does Jupiter have stronger gravity than Earth?
Larger masses exert stronger gravitational forces, so gravity on Jupiter is much stronger than that of Earths. Due to Jupiter's larger size (its the largest planet in our solar system) jupiter has more gravity. It has about 2.5 times the gravity of earth therefore the acceleration due to gravity is 26 m/s/s.
Is there anything in space that has more gravity than Jupiter?
Yes, there are lots of things like that. Gravitational force depends on distance. Usually, when we talk about a planet's "gravity" we mean the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the planet. That's called the "surface gravity". Earth is smaller than Jupiter. Jupiter has more gravity than Earth. If you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you'd weigh about 240lbs at the "surface" of Jupiter. Then you ask yourself ''Hmmm... what has more gravity than Jupiter?" If the Moon was bigger than Earth it will have more gravity. So the answer is stars, such as: Sun, Sirius A , VY Canis Majoris, and more... Improvement by InunoTaisho: Yes, there are many things in space that can outstrip Jupiter for sheer mass (which is the major factor for gravity). A neutron star. Our very own star, known as "the Sun" or "Sol", has a gravity value MUCH higher than that of Jupiter. A black hole, which is so massive, that its "gravity well" sucks in even photons of light, would suck up all of Jupiter in one gulp, though it might take time. Lots of other stars and planetary bodies are larger than that of our big sister planet. Then we move on to objects that are made of many smaller things, like galaxies or nebulas. They can be mind bogglingly huge enough to eat many Jupiters and not even notice a change in gravity at all... But within our own little solar system, the Sun is gravity boss, with Jupiter placing second.
What is whether like on jupiter?
Very hot with volcanoes and a dry surface. On Jupiter there is a lot of gravity so the heat is kept in (it becomes 'stuck to the surface'). I suggest trying somewhere else as a holiday though.. you might get a bit of sunburn! :)
What if Jupiter didn't exist?
Most scientists believe that Jupiter's gravity has played an important role in shaping our solar system. We can't say exactly what things would be like without Jupiter, but it would probably be quite different. The planets would likely be on different orbits, and we might even have different planets from the ones we have. Saturn, for example, might have ended up larger than it is if it were not for Jupiter robbing it of gas from the inner solar system.
Why might children believe there is no gravity on the moon?
Children might believe there is no gravity on the moon because they see astronauts floating in videos and may not have a full understanding of how gravity works in different environments. They may also confuse the concept of weightlessness experienced in space with the absence of gravity. Educating them on the basic principles of gravity and how it still exists on the moon can help clarify this misconception.
How does Jupiter affect our existence?
Jupiter plays a crucial role in our solar system by acting as a gravitational shield, helping to protect Earth from potential comet and asteroid impacts. Its massive size and strong gravity can deflect or capture objects that might otherwise pose a threat to our planet. Additionally, Jupiter's presence stabilizes the orbits of other planets, contributing to the relative stability of the solar system over billions of years. This indirect influence supports the conditions necessary for the development and sustainability of life on Earth.
Jupiter might someday be a star?
No. Jupiter does not have nearly enough mass.
Do humans age the same in space as they do on earth?
Yes, approximately. Because of higher velocity, astronauts age slightly less than their counterparts on earth, when they are in space, but only by a tiny amount.On the other hand, weightlessness and radiation contribute to bone loss and other ill health effects; so it might be said that even though time is slightly slowed-down for astronauts, they can suffer a deterioration of their health.
Could humans survive unaided on jupiter in regards to the presence of water there?
No. Jupiter has no solid surface on which bodies of water might exist, though clouds of liquid water may exist below the visible cloud surface. In addition to lacking a solid surface, Jupiter has an unbreathable atmosphere and the gravity is more than twice as strong as it is on Earth.
