Which planet is smaller than Jupiter?
Jupiter is the largest planet, so all of the other planets are smaller.
Why is Jupiter's period of revolution longer than the inner planets' periods of revolution?
Jupiter's period of revolution is longer than the inner planets' periods of revolution because it is so much farther away from the Sun. Jupiter has to travel over 2 billion miles (3.2 billion kilometers) father than Mars to get around the Sun. Jupiter's orbit is almost 4 times longer than that of Mars in distance. Also Jupiter orbits more slowly. So it takes Jupiter 6 times longer than Mars to orbit the Sun. (Mars is is farthest inner planet from then Sun.)
What in the solar system is closer to Jupiter than Mars?
The asteroid belt (many of Jupiter's smaller moons are captured asteroids).
How is Jupiter different from mars?
Jupiter is much larger and more massive than Mars, with Jupiter being a gas giant while Mars is a terrestrial planet. Jupiter is primarily composed of hydrogen and helium, while Mars is mainly rock and dust. Additionally, Jupiter has a strong magnetic field and many moons, while Mars has a much weaker magnetic field and only two moons.
How large is Mars compared to the other planets?
Mars is a smaller planet, but not the smallest (mercury). Mars is about fifty percent smaller than our earth. the size of the planet go in the order of Mercury, Mars, Venus, Earth, Neptune ,Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter.
What are some differences between Jupiter and Mars?
Jupiter is much larger in size compared to Mars, with Jupiter being the largest planet in our solar system. Jupiter is a gas giant composed mostly of hydrogen and helium, while Mars is a rocky planet with a thin atmosphere. Jupiter has a system of rings and many moons, while Mars has a thin atmosphere and evidence of past water flow on its surface.
What causes Jupiter to look the same size as mars from earth?
This is a function of distance - an object appears smaller the further away it is. Although Jupiter is many times the size of Mars, the two planets appear to be about the same size because Jupiter is also much further away from Earth than Mars is.
What planet is between Mars and Jupiter orbits the sun?
There is absolutely no planet between Mars and Jupiter. I don't know where you got this question from, but that is weird. Maybe they are refering to the asteroid belt that is between these two planets.
What is an irregularly shaped rocky mass that is smaller than a planet and occupies an orbit around the sun and are most found between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter?
An asteroid from the orbit between Mars and Jupiter known as the asteroid belt.
can you see Mars passing in front of the Sun from Jupiter?
No, you cannot see Mars passing in front of the Sun from Jupiter. The distance between the two planets is vast, and any transit of Mars across the Sun would only be observable from Earth, where Mars and the Sun appear closely aligned from our perspective. From Jupiter, Mars would appear much smaller and farther away, making such an event undetectable.
Is Jupiter closer to earth than Mars?
No, Mars is closer to Earth than Jupiter.
Does mars weigh the most out of the eight planets?
Jupiter is the planet with the most mass. Mars is one of the least massive, with only mercury being smaller and lighter.
