What is the Ocean surface area of the planet?
Earth's oceans cover about 70% of the planet's surface.
Is there a relationship between the distance a planet is from the sun and its surface gravity?
No. The strength of surface gravity on a planet depends on its size and mass.
What planet has scraps on its surface?
Mercury
Jupiter facts about the planet's surface?
Is jupiter's surface hot or cold
This planet has a magnetosphere that stretches millions of miles beyond the planet's surface?
Jupiter.
What are scarps on mercury?
Cliffs/Canyons in the surface of a planet.
How do scarps on Mercury differ from geological faults on Earth?
Scarps are thought to have been formed when the planet's iron core cooled and contracted, causing the crust to crack. Faults on Earth are the result of tectonic activity.
How are scarps formed?
Scarps are vertical displacements of the ground surface along a fault, which may be represented by small rises or by steep cliffs. A fault scarp with relatively level land on each side is also called an escarpment.
Why do we suppose that the lobate scarps on mercury's surface formed?
Mercury has shrunken through time. As Mercury cooled and shrank, the crust wrinkled.
How hot and cold is the surface of planet Jupiter?
As the planet Jupiter has no surface, the temperature of the "surface" cannot be measured.
Can a planet have a wet surface?
Probably. Any planet can have a wet surface if it's not hot.
What is the word for the distance through the center of a planet?
The distance from surface to surface through the center of a planet would be that planet's "diameter".
What is the surface for planet Pluto?
The surface for the planet Pluto is at -230 degrees Fahrenheit. It has a surface density of 0.658 m/s2.
What are the surface appearance of planet Venus'?
The surface area of the planet Venus is 4.60×108 km2.
How were the cliffs on Mercury created?
The cliffs, or scarps, that have been found on Mercury are unlike any of the other planets in the solar system. NASA scientists believe that they formed when the center of the planet cooled, causing it to shrink, creating the cliffs.
What planet has liquid water on the surface of only one planet?
The question seems poorly worded, but Earth is the planet with liquid water on its surface.
Which planet has a surface temp of approximately 449 degrees?
which planet has the surface temp of approximately 449 degrees
