What else can I help you with?
Why can the moon not escape from the earth?
The earth is six times more massive than the moon. That keeps the moon in orbit around it, just as the mass of the sun keeps the earth in orbit around it.
How many times greater is the suns diameter than the diameter of earth?
The sun's diameter is about 1.4 million kilometers, which is more than 100 times earth's diameter.
Why does the moon orbit the earth intead of the earth orbiting the moon?
The mass of the earth is over 80 times the mass of the moon. A massive object will tend to capture less massive objects in its gravitational field.____________But consider this: if the moon happened to be the same general size and mass as earth, which would orbit which? You would observe them each orbiting around an invisible spot half way between them, their 'system' center of gravity otherwise called the 'barycenter'. They would effectively be orbiting around each other. As the moon becomes less massive, what determines the 'cut-off' between orbiting around each other and the smaller orbiting the larger? In fact it is still true that earth and moon are each orbiting their barycenter. Interestingly, the barycenter in this case is within the body of the earth, because the earth is so much more massive than the earth.
What planet has more water than land?
There is more water than land. Answer There is quite a bit more sea than land, and an approximate ratio would be 2/3 sea and 1/3 land.
Is Jupiter's gravity stronger then Earth's?
No. The gravity of Jupiter more than twice as strong as that on Earth.
How much more massive is the Sun than Earth?
The Sun is about 333,000 times more massive than Earth.
What is planet is 15 more time massive than earth?
None of the planets that scientist know is exactly 15 times more massive than earth, but the closet one is Saturn, it is 18 times more bigger than earth,
How many times more massive is the Earth than the moon?
The Earth has 81 times the mass of the Moon, but is only 49.3 times larger by volume. This demonstrates the relatively less dense nature of the Moon compared to Earth, because it does not have the same large, dense iron core.
How many more times massive is a protons than an electron?
A proton is approximately 1836 times more massive than an electron.
Planet 15 times more massive than earth?
Uranus
Which planet is 15 times more massive than earth?
Uranus
Do Earth and the moon have the same mass?
No. Earth is about 80 times more massive than the moon.
Does Earth have more mass than Saturn?
No, Saturn is nearly 100 times more massive than earth..
What is the difference in mass between mercury and earth?
Earth is about 18.2 times more massive than mercury.
What planet is about 15 times more massive than earth?
None of the planets that scientist know is exactly 15 times more massive than earth, but the closet one is Saturn, it is 18 times more bigger than earth,
How many times greater is the mass of Earth than the mass of an electron?
The mass of the Earth is about 6x1024 kg The mass of an elecron is 9x10-31 kg Divide the first by the second to get the answer: The Earth is about 6.5x1054 times more massive. 6,500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
How big is the planet sun?
The Sun is not a planet, it is a Star. It is 332,946 times more massive than the Earth.
