Can you describe the surface of the Jovian planets?
The Jovian planets are gas giants and have no surface.
Anong the eight planets which have the largest size and least density?
The four Jovian planets
How do the escape velocities of the jovian planets compare to the terrestrial planets?
The Jovian planets have much higher escape velocities.
Compare and contrast terrestrial and Jovian planets?
The main difference is size. Jovian planets are very large and terrestrial planets aren't. Jovian planets are also made of gas and terrestrials are made of rocks.
Is the average density of terrestrial planets the same density as Jovian planet?
No. Terrestrial planets are much denser than Jovian planets.
What does the atmosphere of the jovian planets consist of?
they all have different gasses in there atmosphere
What are the two main reason why Jovian planets have much thicker atmoshperes than the Terrestrial planets?
While terrestrial planets are made of rock and have gases in the atmosphere, jovian planets are made almost entirly of gases. If an atmosphere is made of gases in a planet, then the atmosphere of the planets with more gases will be thicker.
Is composed mainly of gases and ices a characteristic of the Jovian planets?
That's true.
What type of atmosphere do jovian planets have?
The atmosphere gets thicker and thicker as you go down; the planets basically consist mainly of atmosphere, though those planets are expected to have a solid core.
Why do Jovian planets have a thicker atmosphere than the terrestrial planets?
Jovian planets do not have a solid surface, therefore their atmospheres are thick all the say to where their surface would be. Their atmospheres have more gasses than those surrounding terrestrial planets.
What do jovian planets not have?
Jovian Planets do not have a solid surface to stand on.
Is a Jovian planets is call Inner?
Inner planets are terrestrial planets outer are jovian planets
Do the terrestrial planets have much smaller masses than the Jovian planets?
The cores of jovian planets are very similar to terrestrial ones. Jovian planets are simply a more evolved form of terrestrial planet contrary to popular perception. Jovian planets often have a lot of hydrogen, helium, methane, and/or volatile ices to make up its atmosphere to the point where oceans of these components cover the terrestrial core and billow the atmosphere to large proportions. Terrestrial planets absorbed less of these components from the leftover solar nebula leaving only the rocky surface and maybe some gas of an atmosphere.
What are the 3 characteristics the jovian planets have in common?
Jovian planets are: -gaseous -farthest planets from the sun -largest planets
Why are the components of jovian atmosphere so different from those of terrestrial planets?
Because Jupiter is mainly hydrogen.
Why do Jovian planets have a gas surface that turns into liquid as you go deeper?
When you look at Jovian planets through a telescope or view images of them, what you see is not their surface, but the outer layer of an extremely dense atmosphere. At depth, immense pressure from thousands of miles of atmosphere turns gases into liquids.
Can you describe the surface of the Jovian planets?
The Jovian planets are gas giants and have no surface.
