Earth will be a little colder on parts
The radius becomes one and a half times larger
Assuming the earth is a sphere, it corresponds to the rule that M is proportional to radius^3 - shrinking the radius by half, we see: (1/2)^3 = 1/8, the earth has shrunk to a mere eighth of it's mass.
According to NASA the size of Mercury is 2440 km radius. And it is almost a half the size of the Earth. Because Earth size is 6372 km radius. Meaning the Mercury is about 1/3 the size of the Earth.
The volume becomes one eighth.
False. In volume, Mars is 0.15 times the volume of earth. Mars' radius is roughly half of Earth's radius.
No. Radius is half of the diameter.
the sun's radius is and half a million bigger than the radius of the sun.
The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the planet would be four times greater than that of Earth. This is because the acceleration due to gravity is directly proportional to the radius of the planet, and inversely proportional to the square of the radius. Since the radius of the planet is half that of Earth, the acceleration due to gravity would increase accordingly.
The equatorial radius 3,396.2 kilometers (2,110miles).The equatorial circumference of Mars is 21,339 kilometers (13,259 miles).Compared to Earth, the ratio is .533, i.e. the radius and circumference of Mars is about half the radius and circumference of Earth.
The value of the gravitational field strength on a planet with half the mass and half the radius of Earth would be the same as Earth's gravitational field strength. This is because the gravitational field strength depends only on the mass of the planet and the distance from the center, not on the size or density of the planet.
That depends what you mean by "size". Diameter: 0.38 times the diameter of Earth. Radius: same number, since the radius is half the diameter. Volume: the ratio of the diameters cubed. Mass: 0.055 times Earth's mass.
Yes, a radius IS half of a diameter
