The conditions on Venus are the result of its closer orbit to the Sun, and to a "runaway greenhouse effect" that traps solar heat in the lower atmosphere.
Venus is only 2/3 as far from the Sun in its orbit as Earth, about 108 million kilometers. As the planet lost its water, the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increased, and this absorbs much of the heat re-radiated by the surface. Being so dense, it holds more heat than Earth air.
The average temperature planetwide is 460°C (860°F), twice as hot as an oven, and high enough to melt lead and zinc.
What else can I help you with?
How did the planet Venus get so hot?
Venus got so hot because of all the gases in its atmosphere that they started a greenhouse effect on it making it now the hottest planet in the solar system.
What 3 metals would melt on Venus?
Three metals that would melt on Venus due to its extremely high surface temperature of about 870 degrees Fahrenheit (465 degrees Celsius) are lead, zinc, and aluminum. These metals have melting points below Venus's surface temperature.
Witch planet has a atmosphere that can melt led?
Venus has an atmosphere that is extremely hot, with temperatures reaching up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit. This high temperature could potentially melt lead, a metal with a melting point of 621 degrees Fahrenheit.
Why life doesn't exist on Venus?
A life form as we know of could not possibly survive on Venus due to the immense heat. Venus suffers from extreme global warming. It has an atmosphere so thick that heat cannot escape back to space. There is no difference between night and day temperatures. It is always a balmy 460oC, a temperature so hot that lead would melt. That is not to say, that there is NO life on Venus, it's just as we know it, there is no life forms that we know could survive that temperature.
When do cold temperatures occur on Venus?
Cold temperatures on Venus occur primarily at the high altitudes in the atmosphere, where temperatures can drop to around -70 degrees Celsius (-94 degrees Fahrenheit). The surface of Venus is extremely hot, with temperatures exceeding 450 degrees Celsius (840 degrees Fahrenheit) due to its thick atmosphere and greenhouse effect.
What planet is extremely hot?
Venus, it's so hot it can melt lead.
What makes up the suface of Venus?
Venus surface is so hot it could melt led, Lots of space, has been crust
Is Venus's hot or cold or what?
Venus' thick atmosphere and closer relation to the Sun makes it astonishingly hot. Hot enough to melt lead and sulphur.
Which planet 's surface's is hot enough to melt lead?
the hottest planet is not the planet nearest to the sun, which is mercury. it is venus, the second nearest. it is very hot on venus because, unlike mercury, venus has an atmosphere. the atmosphere acts rather like the windows in a greenhouse, and helps to heat the surface of the planet. the temperature there is about 900 degrees, which i shot enough to melt several metals.
What makes up the surface of Venus?
lava
How is Venus's different to other objects?
VENUS IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER OBJECTS BECAUSE VENUS ROTATES IN THE OPPISITE DIRECTION WHILE ITS ORBITING THE SUN.VENUS IS ALSO DIFFERENT BECAUSE ITS CLOUDS ARE FULL OF SULPHURIC ACID AND VENUS IS SO HOT THAT IT CAN MELT LEAD. VENUS IS KNOWN AS EARTHS UGLY SISTER BECAUSE THEY BOTH STARTED OFF THE SAME BUT VENUS'S OCEANS EVAPORATED BECAUSE IT STARTED GETTING SO HOT .
What is the average on Venus?
The average temperature on Venus is 864 degrees Fahrenheit which is the same as 462 degrees Celsius. That temperature is hot enough to melt lead.
Is Venus's habitable?
No. The surface of Venus is hot enough to melt lead. The clouds covering the entire planet are of sulfiric acid. A very nasty place.
How did the planet Venus get so hot?
Venus got so hot because of all the gases in its atmosphere that they started a greenhouse effect on it making it now the hottest planet in the solar system.
Is there frozen water on venus?
No, Venus does not have frozen water on its surface. The surface temperatures on Venus are extremely hot, reaching up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit (475 degrees Celsius), which is hot enough to melt and evaporate any water present.
Is Venus too cold or too hot for water?
It is too hot.The surface temperature could melt lead.
If were going venus what you take?
I would bring a suit that would allow me to breath and not melt. And a hot chick. And a suit for her.
