Does Jupiter have a larger equatorial diameter or polar diameter?

Jupiter spins so much faster than Earth, for instance, that its gassy state results in bulging out at the equator. The equatorial diameter is larger than the polar diameter.


Which is bigger the moon Mercury Pluto or Ganymede?

Jupiter's moon Ganymede is the largest. It is the largest moon in the Solar System. Ganymede's equatorial diameter is 5,262 km. This is about 2% larger than Saturn's moon Titan. Pluto's equatorial diameter is only 2,274 km. The Earth's Moon has an equatorial diameter of 3,476 km. Mercury's equatorial diameter is 4,880 km. It is smaller than Ganymede but more massive.


Which moons are larger than planets?

Pluto's equatorial diameter is 2,274 km. The diameter of Earth's moon is 3,476 km. Jupiter has four moons larger than Pluto:-Ganymede - diameter 5,262 kmCallisto - diameter 4,800 kmIo - diameter 3,630 kmEuropa - diameter 3,138 kmSaturn has one moon larger than Pluto - Titan - diameter 5,150 kmNeptune has one moon larger than Pluto - Triton - diameter 2,700 kmThus, there are seven moons larger than Pluto in our Solar System.


How many times can the sun go into vega?

Wikipedia lists the radius of Vega as 2.362 × 2.818 times that of the Sun. Of course, the diameter would be larger than the Sun by the same factor. It is believed that Vega rotates rapidly, thus, the equatorial diameter would be larger. The volume would therefore be 2.362 × 2.818 × 2.818 times that of the Sun.


Which of the primary bronchi is larger in diameter?

The right primary bronchus is larger in diameter.


What is Earth's diameter compared to Mars'?

The diameter of Mars is just over half the diameter of Earth.To be accurate, it depends on where you measure it.The equatorial radius of Mars is 3,396.2 km which is 0.533 Earth's 6,378.1 km.The polar radius of Mars is 3,376.2 km which is 0.531 Earth's 6,356.8 km.


What is larger diameter .25 millimeter or .2 millimeter?

It is .25 mm that is the larger diameter


Is the diameter of earth larger when measured from pole to pole or when measured at the equator?

From the NASA site: "The diameter of Earth from North Pole to South Pole is 7,899.83 miles (12,713.54 kilometers), but through the equator it is 7,926.41 miles (12,756.32 kilometers). This difference, 26.58 miles (42.78 kilometers), is only 1/298 the diameter of Earth." Thus the earth is 25 miles or 42.78 km wider than it is tall, giving it a slight bulge at the equator. This is only 0.3%, too small to be seen visually.


Is the moon bigger then the earth it is?

The diameter of the Moon is 3,474 km. (Diameter of the Moon in miles: 2,159 miles) Since the Earth is not a perfect sphere, there are three numbers to know when answering questions about the diameter of Earth. The rotation of the planet has slightly flattened it out, so it has a larger diameter at the equator than at the poles. The equatorial diameter of Earth is 12,756 km, its polar diameter is 12,713 km, and its average diameter, which is referred to in common usage, is 12,742 km. For our friends who are not using the metric system, that translates to 7,926 miles.
