What else can I help you with?
What planet is twice as small as the sun?
No planet is that big. Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system, is about a tenth the diameter of the sun.
What planet is twice as far from the sun as to Jupiter?
Earth is 1 AU from the Sun. There is no planet at an orbit of 2.5 AU. (Mars orbits at 1.5 AU and Jupiter at 5.2 AU).
How does the heat Jupiter radiates compare to the energy it receives from the Sun?
Jupiter radiates about 1.6 times more energy than it receives from the Sun. This excess heat is leftover from Jupiter's formation and helps to sustain its atmosphere and powerful weather systems.
What position is the planet Jupiter?
Planet Jupiter is located from the 5th from the sun and this is the big planet.
Is Jupiter almost as big as the sun?
No.... Haha :P Jupiter - 142 984 km Sun - 1 391 000 km (Diameter)
How do Jupiter and Saturn resemble the Sun?
They are gas giants just like the sun except not as big
What is bigger Jupiter or earth?
Jupiter: It's the biggest planet in the solar system. In fact, Jupiter is more than twice as big as all the other planets combined!
How much bigger than Jupiter is the Sun?
Jupiter is actually ten times SMALLER than the sun, not bigger.
How big is the sun compared to jupiter?
Jupiters' diameter is 142,740 km, while the sun's is 1,377,648 km. This means that Jupiter's diameter is just over a tenth of the sun's diameter.
Which planet gives off twice as much heat as it gets from the sun?
Jupiter gives off more heat than it receives from the sun, with its internal heat source generating about twice as much energy as it receives from the sun. This excess heat contributes to Jupiter's high internal temperature and its strong magnetic field.
One of Jupiter's moons is as big as the planet mercury if the moon is so big why is it a moon and not a planet?
Jupiter's moon Ganymede is as big as Mercury but is classified as a moon because it orbits Jupiter rather than orbiting the sun directly. Planets are celestial bodies that orbit the sun directly, while moons orbit planets. Ganymede's orbit around Jupiter classifies it as a moon rather than a planet.
Is ganymede twice as large as Jupiter?
No. If that were the case Ganymede would not be a moon of Jupiter. The only thing in the solar system larger than Jupiter is the sun. Jupiter is nearly 30 times larger in diameter than Ganymede.
