While vastly different in size, density, and environments, Earth and Pluto have some similarities : * Both have nitrogen as an atmospheric constituent (Pluto's is usually frozen solid). * Both rotate counter-clockwise (of course, only Venus turns clockwise) * Both have a moon that keeps one face exclusively toward the planet. (Charon's larger size relative to Pluto may be a cause of slowed planetary rotation.) * Both have colder polar regions that react to increases in solar heating (however, sublimation of ice on Pluto tends to cool the surface, whereas on Earth the reduced albedo prompts more heating)

How long is 1 second on Pluto?

An hour is a period defined for Earth beings. However, an hour being a part of a rotation of a planet, based on Earths period of rotation, then an hour on Pluto would be:- R / 24 where R is the rotation period. Pluto =~ 6.4 Earth Days. So 6.4 / 24


Will your mass be the same on Pluto and on earth?

Yes. Mass is a measure of matter. If you were to go to Pluto, you would still have the matter that you're made up of. The difference in the gravitational force of Pluto and that of Earth would affect your weight, but not your mass.


How many days in 1 year has Pluto?

90,580.0653 earth daysFirst you must break it down the same units of measure, because Pluto rotates around the sun every 248 (earth) years, and rotates on it's axis every 6.387 (earth) days. what we're going to do is put everything down to days. 248 (earth) years is about 90580.0653 (earth) days and since we already have Pluto's day at 6.387 (earth) days it just simple division if you want to know the amount of (Pluto) days in a (Pluto) year. 90580.0653/6.387 and you get your answer.There are roughly 14,181.9423 (Pluto) days in a (Pluto) year. Hope it helpsthere are 90,472 days in a year on pluto

What is the size comparison of Earth and Pluto?

If Pluto's orbit were on the same plane as Earth's orbit, if Earth were directly between the sun and Pluto, if Earth were at its aphelion (the point in its orbit where it's farthest from the sun), and if Pluto were at its perihelion (the point in its orbit closest to the sun), on the scale where the diameter of Earth is 5 mm, the distance from Earth to Pluto is about 1.681 km (a little over a mile).
