How does your planet compare in size to the other planets?
Our planet is the third planet from the Sun and is considered a medium-sized planet compared to the other planets in our solar system. It is smaller than the gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn but larger than the terrestrial planets like Mercury, Venus, and Mars. Earth has a diameter of about 12,742 kilometers.
What would be the gravity of Earth if it was the size of Jupiter?
If the Earth were inflated to the size of Jupiter, BUT KEPT THE SAME MASS AS IT HAS NOW, then your weight on its surface would be less. To calculate the gravitational force between two objects, we use the distance between their centers of mass. The earth presently has a diameter of about 7,940 miles, whereas Jupiter has a diameter of about 88,800 miles. So on earth, you are about 3,970 miles from the center of mass, whereas on Jupiter you would be about 44,400 miles from the center of mass. The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of this distance. (3,970/44,400)2 = 0.008 (rounded) Each 100 pounds of your weight on the earth-sized earth would weigh about 1/8 of an ounce on a Jupiter-sized earth ... if the earth's mass didn't change. 88,800
What makes earth a planet but not Pluto?
Earth is classified as a planet because it orbits the sun, has enough mass to form a roughly spherical shape, and has cleared its orbit of other debris. Pluto, on the other hand, does not meet the definition of a planet because it has not cleared its orbit and is part of a region with other similar sized objects called the Kuiper Belt.
Is Earth small?
in general no but it is an average sized planet, and very small compared to our sun, galaxy etc.
Does Jupiter have the strongest pull of gravity out of all planets?
Jupiter does have the strongest gravitational pull (because of its mass) of all the planets in THIS solar system. However, scientists have now identified over 350 planets orbiting other stars, and among those planets, Jupiter is almost puny. Some of the other exoplanets are more than 10 times Jupiter's mass. But this only makes sense, because an enormous planet would be far easier to detect than an Earth-sized planet from stellar distances.
The grat red spot refers to what on which planet?
An Earth-sized storm on Jupiter.
Is Venus a small medium or large as a planet?
It's small compared with Jupiter and the other gas planets, but is a good sized rocky planet compared with mercury or mars.
Which planet has a huge red red spot?
Jupiter has a great red spot that large enough to contain two or three earth sized planet
Approxroimatley how many planets the size of earth could fit into the largest planet?
The largest planet in the Solar System is Jupiter which is 1,321.3 times the volume of the Earth.
Was the moon formed after a planet-sized object collided with the sun.?
No. The moon formed after a planet-sized object collided with Earth.
Is Venus an average sized planet?
Our solar system can be described as containing four above average sized planets, which are the four gas giants, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus, and four below average sized planets, which are the rocky, Earth-like planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars, as well as a number of smaller dwarf planets (such as Pluto which was at one time considered a planet). Venus could be described as average in size for its category of planet.
Can you pack a lot of earth sized planets into Jupiter and still have room left?
Yeah, Jupiter is a lot bigger than Earth so you can fit a lot of Earths in there. Jupiter is smaller than the sun.
Was used to find a Jupiter- sized planet through careful measurements?

What is the size of the earth or how big is the earth?
Earth is a normal sized planet and has a magnitude of 12,756.28km and 11,533 miles round .

What kind of body is the sun and what kind is the earth?
the sun is an average sized star and earth is a terrestrial planet.
Is Jupiter the biggest planet in the solar system now?
Jupiter is the largest planet in the Solar System. There are many larger planets outside of the Solar System but it's the largest in THIS solar system.Recently discovered "exoplanets", planets orbiting other stars, range in size from fairly large to positively enormous. (Our sensors are not yet good enough to detect Earth-sized planets around other stars, but soon, soon..... ) The biggest are up to 50 times more massive than Jupiter, the point at which a massive body becomes massive enough to cause nuclear fusion - and becomes a tiny star.Yes it's the biggest. Even if it is a gas planet.Yes. Jupiter is a medium-sized gas giant, the largest planet in our solar system. It is more than twice as massive as the next-largest planet, Saturn, and is more than 3000 times Earth's mass. However, it is still about 1/1000 the mass of the sun.
