How does the chemical composition of the terrestrial planet atmospheres differ from the Jovian planets?
Terrestrial planet atmospheres are primarily composed of gases like nitrogen and oxygen, with small amounts of carbon dioxide and other trace gases, while Jovian planet atmospheres consist mostly of hydrogen and helium, along with traces of methane and ammonia. Terrestrial planets have thinner atmospheres compared to Jovian planets, which have massive, thick atmospheres made up of mostly hydrogen and helium.
What inner planets have atmospheres?
3 Venus,Earth,and Mars (Mercury doesn't have much of an atmosphere there is to less gravity)
Do inner planets have thicker atmospheres than outer planets?
no
Which process explains why the terrestrial planets do not have hydrogen and helium in their atmospheres?
The terrestrial planets are less massive and therefore have less gravity. As a result, much of the lighter gases could escape, in the process of planet formation.
Could you list the planets in order from the thickest to thinest atmospheres?
The terrestrial planets in order from the thickest to thinnest atmospheres Venus, Earth, Mars, and Mercury. Since the gas giants are almost entirely made of gas, it is difficult to determine where the atmospheres end.
Do outer planets have atmospheres?
Yes
Do only the inner planets have atmospheres?
Negative, not only do the inner planets have atmospheres, but the outer planets also have atmospheres. The masses of the outer planets are great, enough easily to hold an atmosphere. In fact it's Mercury, an inner planet, that has almost no atmosphere. True, Mercury has a less mass and the closeness to the sun make it impossible to hold on a atmosphere. As matter in fact, Mars had a atmosphere, but the solar wind had almost eaten all the atmosphere that Mars had.
What has the author J-P Beaulieu written?
J.-P Beaulieu has written: 'Molecules in the atmospheres of extrasolar planets' -- subject(s): Atmospheres, Extrasolar planets, Congresses, Planets
What are effects that atmospheres have on planets?
greenhouse effect
Why are the four closest planets to the sun are of terrestrial nature and the last four are of gaseous-icy nature?
The gas giants and the terrestrial planets initially formed in similar ways, however, the powerful solar wind of the young sun stripped away the first atmospheres of the inner planets. The outer planets were less affected by this and so retained their thick atmospheres of hydrogen and helium. Today, the outer planets recieve much less heat from the sun than do the inner planets, allowing various ices to form.
Which terrestrail planets have atmospheres?
Venus, Earth and Mars.
What are the atmospheres of outer planets?
its made out of jaffa cakes
