What else can I help you with?
Do earth and the moon have atmospheres?
Of course the Earth has an atmosphere- that is the air that you are breathing. However, the Moon does not.
What planets have nitrogen atmospheres?
Planets with nitrogen atmospheres include Earth and Venus. Nitrogen makes up about 78% of Earth's atmosphere and about 3.5% of Venus's atmosphere.
How is air held in position around the Earth?
By the Earth's gravity. This is why celestial bodies like the Moon and Mercury do not have atmospheres, they don't have enough gravity to hold onto the gases.
What is the definition of the Jet Stream?
Jet streams are fast flowing, narrow air currents found in the atmospheres of some planets, including Earth.
Do earth and Mars have different atmospheres?
Yes
What is the amount of air placing on the earth is called?
The amount of air pressing down on the Earth's surface is called atmospheric pressure. It is caused by the weight of the air molecules in the atmosphere and is typically measured in units such as pascals or atmospheres. Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude, as there is less air above to exert force.
Which terrestrail planets have atmospheres?
Venus, Earth and Mars.
Does earth have a lot of atmospheres?
No, it has only one atmosphere.
Why is planet earth the only planet with air?
It depends on how you define air. Other planets in the solar system have atmospheres, but they have different compositions from Earth's atmosphere, which may or may not be called air. The gas planets have atmospheres made mostly of hydrogen and helium while Venus and Mars have atmospheres made mostly of carbon dioxide. The air we are familiar with is mostly nitrogen and oxygen. When Earth was young it likely had a carbon dioxide atmosphere as well, but through photosynthesis algae took carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere are replaced it with oxygen. More carbon dioxide was removed in bodies of water and deposited as carbonate rocks. The nitrogen, already present in the atmosphere, remained.
Why there is no air in the space but available in the universe?
Because of atmospheres
How many atmospheres does Venus have?
Venus has an atmospheric pressure equivalent to about 92 times that of Earth's, which is roughly 92 atmospheres.
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.
