The gravity at the surface of Venus is great enough to keep the gasses produced by the volcanoes from escaping into space. Somewhat like the "snowballing" effect on gas giants where gravity collects molecules from the areas in their orbital path leading to dense thick atmospheres, in this case gravity prevents escape of locally created gases.
What else can I help you with?
Does earth have as thick an atmosphere as Venus?
No, Earth's atmosphere is not as thick as Venus'. Venus has an atmosphere that is composed mainly of carbon dioxide, with a pressure about 92 times greater than Earth's atmosphere. This makes Venus' atmosphere much thicker and denser than Earth's.
What is the preasure on Venus?
The atmospheric pressure on Venus is about 92 times greater than Earth's atmospheric pressure, equivalent to being about 900 meters underwater on Earth. The high pressure on Venus is due to the thick layer of carbon dioxide and other gases in its atmosphere.
Is Venus' atmosphere heavy?
I'm not sure what a "heavy" atmosphere is but Venus' atmosphere is denser than Earth's and the atmospheric pressure at the surface is much greater than Earth's
Why does the atmosphere of venus not support complex life?
It cannot be said that there is no life. It is just that the combination of sulfuric acid, carbon dioxide, high pressure and heat of the planet has prevented much study beyond its outer atmosphere by several countries' missions to Venus.
What is venus weather atmosphere?
Venus has a very thick atmosphere of Carbon dioxide. Its average surface pressure is a crushing 93 bar, or 93 times that of Earths
Venus atmosphere has what?
Compared to Earth's, it has:* A high pressure * An extremely high temperature
Can we stand on Venus?
Provided that you are protected from the extremely high temperatures, the corrosive atmosphere and the high atmospheric pressure, there should be no problem!
Which planet's atmosphere is so heavy and thick that it could crush a human?
Venus has an atmosphere that is extremely dense and composed primarily of carbon dioxide, with pressure at the surface about 92 times that of Earth's. The atmospheric pressure and high temperatures on Venus would indeed crush and incinerate a human.
Which planet has the heaviest atmosphere?
all planets have atmospheres. However, Mercury has extremely low atmospheric pressure, Mars has an atmosphere way below the Armstrong Limit, and Venus and the Outer worlds have way too high of an atmosphere.
Which planet has an atmospheric pressure that is 91 times that of earth?
Venus has an atmospheric pressure about 91 times greater than Earth's due to its dense carbon dioxide atmosphere and the high surface pressure caused by the greenhouse effect. This extreme pressure makes Venus's surface conditions inhospitable for life as we know it.
Does Venus's have a thick atmosphere?
Thick AtmosphereYes, Venus has a thick atmosphere. The pressure at the surface is 92 times that of earth.
Does earth have as thick an atmosphere as Venus?
No, Earth's atmosphere is not as thick as Venus'. Venus has an atmosphere that is composed mainly of carbon dioxide, with a pressure about 92 times greater than Earth's atmosphere. This makes Venus' atmosphere much thicker and denser than Earth's.
Which of the eight planets of our solar system has the highest atmospheric pressure?
Venus is the planet with the highest atmospheric pressure, equal to about 90 x the pressure on Earth at sea level.Note: the gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) are made of gas, and do not have a clear distinction between "planet" and "atmosphere."
What is the preasure on Venus?
The atmospheric pressure on Venus is about 92 times greater than Earth's atmospheric pressure, equivalent to being about 900 meters underwater on Earth. The high pressure on Venus is due to the thick layer of carbon dioxide and other gases in its atmosphere.
Why is it unlikely that Venus has no life on its surface?
because of the pressure of its atmosphere
Is Venus' atmosphere heavy?
I'm not sure what a "heavy" atmosphere is but Venus' atmosphere is denser than Earth's and the atmospheric pressure at the surface is much greater than Earth's
