Venus' atmosphere consists mainly of Co2 (Carbon dioxide), while Earth's atmosphere is Co2 and oxygen. Co2 is much denser than oxygen, so it holds more heat from the sunlight.
This trapping of heat by gases is known as the "greenhouse effect", and while we are experiencing a small amount of it on Earth, Venus has a higher concentration of Co2, making the effect MUCH more severe. The effect is also more severe because Venus is closer to the sun.
Actually, Venus has the largest LAND surface area of any other planet.
Earth is slightly larger than Venus, but 72% of Earth's surface is covered by the oceans.
The four planets larger than Earth - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are Gas Giants, with atmospheres so thick we do not know how large the solid cores are. It is assumed that they do have a solid core somewhere, but any probe sent down (so far, just at Jupiter), the probe gets crushed by atmospheric pressure long before it reaches anything solid.
At any rate, Mars is barely 1/2 the size of Earth, but has almost the same Land area.
Venus is much closer to the sun than the earth is, and has a much denser atmosphere.
The surface temperature of Venus is higher than the surface temperatures of the other inner planets because of its thick atmosphere.
All eight planets have a surface temperature, though it varies as the planets distance from the sun varies. Closer planets to the sun generally have a higher surface temperature, while further planets have a colder surface temperature.
It's roughly 10% less on the surface of Venus than on Earth's surface.
Since Earth and Venus are roughly the same size AND have roughly the same mass, they have roughly the same gravity. The acceleration of gravity on the surface of Venus is 90.3% of what it is on Earth's surface.
Venus has a very hot greenhouse effect. In fact, it makes Venus the hottest planet in the solar system. The thick carbon dioxide atmosphere holds the heat very effectively, like a runaway greenhouse effect. Surface temperatures on Venus average 900° Fahrenheit, 735° Kelvin or 460° Celsius.
Venus has the highest surface temperature of the 4 terrestrial planets. The gas giants have hotter interiors, but they do not have the same differentiation of surface/atmosphere that the smaller planets do. Venus has the hottest Earth-like location that human technology can currently access, and is especially interesting because of the planet's similarities to Earth in composition and size.
The measured temperature of Venus is, on average, much higher than that of earth.
All eight planets have a surface temperature, though it varies as the planets distance from the sun varies. Closer planets to the sun generally have a higher surface temperature, while further planets have a colder surface temperature.
Higher than earth
Earth: about 100,000 Pascal at sea level. 100,000 Pascal is also known as 1 bar. Venus: about 92 bar at surface level.
Much higher. The carbon dioxide is a green house gas and traps the sunlight hitting the surface of Venus. The measurements, though I forget the exact numbers, are many times the average earth temperature.
Not a chance. Venus (surface temperature: 900 degrees F.) will only get hotter as time goes on.
because the amounts of earth is
The greenhouse effect traps heat from the Sun. Venus and Earth display good
Both are about the same size, but the surface of Earth and Venus are different. Venus is mainly a rocky surface, with highlands, lowlands and plains, with no vegetation or seas.
Try these:What is the surface temperature of Venus?What corrosive material is a major component of the clouds of Venus?How long was the longest time a lander was able to function on the surface of Venus?What was the first country to land a functioning lander on Venus' surface?Why has Venus traditionally been called Earth's twin?Why is the crust of Venus so thin compared to Earth's crust?Why is the crust of Venus so much younger than Earth's crust?Why does Venus lack moons?Does it rain or snow on the surface of Venus?How long is one Venus year in Venus days?
In order, they are Venus, Mercury, Earth, Mars.
Venus has a rocky surface,Earth some what does.
