The diameter of Charon, one of Pluto's moons, is 1,413 miles. The diameter of Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, is 1,950 miles. Charon is smaller than Europa.
Europa is 1,900 miles in diameter, roughly 1/4 the size of the Earth.
Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, has a diameter of about 3,100 miles, making it slightly smaller than Earth's moon. In comparison, Earth has a diameter of about 7,900 miles, making it significantly larger than Europa.
Pluto has five satellites(moon) which are Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos and Hydra out of which Charon is the Biggest. However, It is approximately half of pluto. If the Charon was bigger than pluto, We would probably be seeing pluto rotating around Charon. This is because,Charon would have more gravitional force than that of pluto as Its size would be bigger. Simply put, Bigger things dont revolve around smaller things. So, Pluto's moons are not bigger than Pluto.
1. The thickness of the rings around Saturn. They are less then 1km thick. 2. The diameter of the Earth's moon. Earth's moon is about 3500 km in diameter. 3. The diameter of the orbit of Jupiter is far bigger than the diameter of the Earth's moon.
Pluto has a moon nearly half its size.?Pluto's diameter is about 2300 km, while its moon Charon has an estimated diameter of 1200 km. Of course, remembering that volume is related to the cube of linear dimensions, that means Pluto's volume is actually about eight times that of Charon.
Yes. In fact Europa is bigger than Pluto!
Yes, the diameter of Charon, which is the largest moon of Pluto, is significantly smaller than the rings of Saturn. Charon has a diameter of about 1,212 kilometers, whereas the rings of Saturn have an average diameter of about 270,000 kilometers.
Much smaller. Consider, the diameter of the rings of Saturn are larger than Saturn itself, and Saturn is the second largest planet in the solar system. The rings of Saturn have a diameter of about 280,000 Kilometers. Charon has a diameter of about 1,200 kilometers. In other words the rings of Saturn are are more than 200 times larger than Charon.
Europa is 1,900 miles in diameter, roughly 1/4 the size of the Earth.
The ratio of the diameter of Pluto to the diameter of its moon Charon is about 1:1, making it larger than the ratio of the diameter of the Moon to Earth, which is 0.25:1. This means Charon is relatively much larger compared to Pluto than the Moon is to Earth.
Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, has a diameter of about 3,100 miles, making it slightly smaller than Earth's moon. In comparison, Earth has a diameter of about 7,900 miles, making it significantly larger than Europa.
No, Mercury is larger than Europa. Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system, while Europa is one of Jupiter's moons. Mercury has a diameter of about 4,880 kilometers, whereas Europa's diameter is around 3,100 kilometers.

charon has a gravitational pull that is equal to which earth has a gravitational field on charon. still the charon has a gravitational pull that can pull earth a centimeter distance away from the earth yearly but we all studied about law of conservation of center of mass you might have understood why i have taken this topic earth is not moving away from the sun...
Jupiter is about 11 times larger in diameter than Europa.
Yes, if you mean half its diameter as opposed to half its mass.Pluto's diameter is approximately 2732 km. As of 2015 it's known to have five moons:Charon: diameter 1208 km; mass about 1/8 that of PlutoNix, Kerberos, Hydra, and Styx: all very small and irregularly shaped; sizes not yet precisely measured.
Pluto has 3 moons, and all of them are smaller than Pluto. The largest moon, Charon, is about half the diameter of Pluto.
