What is the heaviest rock planet?
The four inner, rocky planets are also known as the terrestrial planets. These are; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. Of these four, the largest and the most massive is the Earth.
Compare the sizes of the largest moons in the solar system and the smallest planets in the solar system?
Moons are larger, obviously.
Are there any mountains on planets other than earth?
There are many examples of mountains on planets and moons, some formed by volcanoes, some by tectonic action and some as impact craters.The largest mountains in the solar system are on Mars.Olympus Mons on Mars is the largest mountain in the solar system at 22 km or 14 miles high.There are three more on Mars higher than Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa (10.2 kilometers or 6.3 miles), the largest on Earth as measured from the base to the top. (Not measured from the top to sea level.)Maxwell Montes on Venus is 6.4 kilometers ( 4 miles) high.Our moon and the moons of other planets also have mountains.Of course, mountains do not exist on the giant gas planets, but the moons of those planets can have mountains.There is a list in the related links.
Cell organelles may be separated according to their densities by the use of?
Cell organelles may be separated according to their densities by the use of centrifugation.
WHAT is the plate motion due to higher densities?
slab pull
What 4 planets in the solar system have the largest densities?
In order they are : Mercury , Venus , Earth , Mars.
Do the densities of the solar system planets fall into two or more groups?
Yes, the densities of the solar system planets can generally be grouped into two categories: terrestrial planets (such as Earth, Venus, Mars, and Mercury) with higher densities due to their rocky compositions, and the gas giant planets (such as Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) with lower densities due to their gaseous compositions.
How do the densities of the jovian planets compare with the densities of the terrestrial planets?
Although a lot more massive, the four outer gas giant planets are less dense than the inner rocky planets. The densities of the four inner planets are between 3.94 g/cm3 to 5.515 g/cm3, ehile the outer gas planet densities range from 0.7 g/cm3 to 1.76 g/cm3.
Which planets have densities similar to earth?
The four inner, terrestrial or rocky planets all have similar densities, much higher than the four outer gas giant planets (though the outer planets are much larger and more massive).
Do the Jovian planets have lower average densities than the terrestrial planets?
Yes, the Jovian planets have lower average densities compared to the terrestrial planets. This is because the Jovian planets are mainly composed of gases and icy materials, while the terrestrial planets are composed of solid rock and metal.
Why would the average densities of the four large outer planets be so low when compared with the average densities of the inner planets?
Because the outer planets are composed of mainly gas or ice, whereas the inner planets are composed of rock which has a higher density.
Why are the densities of the terrestrial and jovian planets so different?
The terrestrial planets are primarily composed of rock and the jovian planets are mostly gas (primarily Hydrogen). Rock has a higher density than Hydrogen, giving the terrestrial planets a higher density.
What Planets are small rocky and have high densities?
mercury, Venus and earth
What are some characteristics of Jovian planets?
Jovian planets are large and gaseous, with thick atmospheres composed mainly of hydrogen and helium. They have low densities and lack solid surfaces. Jovian planets are typically located farther from the sun than terrestrial planets.
Explain how the inner planets are different from the outer planets?
The inner planets, also called terrestrial planets, are closer to the Sun and have solid surfaces, while the outer planets, known as gas giants, are farther from the Sun and composed mostly of gas. Inner planets are smaller and have higher densities, while outer planets are much larger and have lower densities. Additionally, inner planets have few or no moons, while outer planets have numerous moons.
Define Gas Giant Jovian planets?
they are larger than earth and have low densities.
The largest objects that orbit the sun are called?
The largest objects that orbit the sun are planets.
