Jupiter is further from earth
Because Jupiter is a planet in our own solar system, making it easier to send probes and satellites to, and some scientists believe a Jupiter moon might be capable of supporting life (Europa). Some facts about Jupiter: - 5.20 AU from Sun - 1 Jupiter year=11.86 Earth years - 1 Jupiter day=9.97 Earth hours - Jupiter has 3 faint rings (all our gas giants have rings) - Jupiter does not experience seasons
Smallest to largest - Pluto, Earth, Saturn, Jupiter.
Out of Mercury, Earth, Mars, and Jupiter, Jupiter has the longest year.
It is in 2022 when Jupiter will come close to earth.
Rotation means the planet spinning about it axis. (Orbit the the path of the planet round the Sun). The planet Mercury has a rotational period of 58.646 Earth days. The planet Venus has a (retrograde) rotational period of 243.0185 Earth days. The planet Mars has a rotational period of 1.025957 Earth days. The planet Jupiter has a rotational period of 9.925 hours. Obviously Earth has a rotational period of 1 Earth day.
There is no deep philosophical reason, the spin of the earth is determined by the sum of the velocities of the original mass that formed Earth. The other planets, and the Sun, have different rotational periods.
Jupiter, for all its size, rotates in about 10 hours, twice as fast as Earth does. The Nine Planets website lists the rotational period of Jupiter as "0.41 days". this is thee answerr to how many rotations, not revolutions.
A state of `synchronous rotation`. Its where the rotational period of the moon is equal to orbital rotation period about Earth, one face of the moon will always appear to face earth. In our moons case this is due to tidal locking.
Jupiter rotates once on its axis each 9.9 hours, and revolves once around the sun each 11.86 earth years.
the name of Jupiter's moons :Io 1.7 Earth days to orbit JupiterEuropa 3.5 earth days to orbit the JupiterGanymede 7.1 days to orbit JupiterCallisto 16.7 days to orbit JupiterIo is the nearest moon to Jupiter the Europa then Ganymede and the furthest away is Callisto
weight on jupiter=((mass of jupiter)*(Radius of earth)2/(mass of earth)*(Radius of jupiter)2)*weight on earth
Jupiter is further from earth
what is inclined at an angle of11.5 to earth's rotational axis?
No. Mars has a similar rotational period but not revolution. For a planet to have the same revolution period as Earth would mean it would have to be in the same Orbit as Earth, with catastrophic results. One was in the same orbit as Earth during it's formation, it crashed into the Earth creating the Moon. It's possible that some extrasolar planet (that is, a planet of a star other than the Sun) might by coincidence have nearly the same rotational and/or revolution period, but we don't know of any yet (and it's not very likely that we ever will).
The axial tilt of Jupiter is relatively small: only 3.13°. As a result this planet does not experience significant seasonal changes, in contrast to Earth and Mars for example.
Jupiter is about 317.938 earth masses.
