First things first: I'm not sure what a "terrestrial" is. I assume you left out the word "planet", and this answer will address that.
The density of "terrestrial" planets varies quite a bit. Earth's average density is about 5500 kg per cubic meter, but that of Mars is only about 3900 kg/cubic meter. The Moon is thought to have been created by the impact of an approximately Mars-sized body on the proto-Earth as it was forming, and a lot of the lighter material "splashed" into orbit and formed the Moon, so it's even less dense (about 3350 kg/cubic meter).
In our own solar system, for terrestrial planets the density goes up with size generally speaking, though Mercury is nearly as dense as Earth despite being the smallest planet. This is probably because it's so close to the Sun that the lighter more volatile elements have been vaporized and driven outward by the solar wind and radiation pressure.
What else can I help you with?
Is the average density of terrestrial planets the same density as Jovian planet?
No. Terrestrial planets are much denser than Jovian planets.
What is the rank of the terrestrial planets in order of density?
The rank of terrestrial planets in order of density from highest to lowest is Mercury, Earth, Venus, and Mars. Mercury has the highest density due to its large iron core, while Mars has the lowest density among the terrestrial planets.
What Percent Of Earth's Density Does Jupiter Have?
Jupiter has about 24.8% of the average density of Earth. This is due to Jupiter being a gas giant composed mostly of hydrogen and helium, whereas Earth is a terrestrial planet made up of rock and metal.
How do the sizes of the terrestrial planets compare to the gas giants?
The average terrestrial planet has only about 10.3% of the diameter and 0.4% of the mass of the average gas giant.
The Moon's average density is about the same as the density of which of the Earth's layers?
The moon's average density is about the same as the density of mantle of the Earth.
Is the average density of terrestrial planets the same density as Jovian planet?
No. Terrestrial planets are much denser than Jovian planets.
Is the average density of the terrestrial planets greater or less than the density of Earth's crust?
The average density of the terrestrial planets is greater than the density of Earth's crust. Terrestrial planets have higher densities due to their composition of rock and metal, while Earth's crust is composed of lighter minerals like granite and basalt.
Compared to the density of liquid water 1 gram. what is the average range of density in the terrestrial planets?
The density of water in terrestrial depends on many different factors. The density can only be determined based on the planet's history, they may have "water", but there could be other things inside. Also the gravity of the planet play a role of the density of the water.
How do Jovian and terrestrial planets compare?
Jovian planets are gas giants made mostly of hydrogen and helium, while terrestrial planets are rocky planets with solid surfaces. Jovian planets are much larger in size and have thick atmospheres, while terrestrial planets are smaller and have thinner atmospheres. Jovian planets have many moons and ring systems, while terrestrial planets have fewer moons and no rings.
What are densities of terrestrial planets?
Relative to planet Earth (as density 1): Mercury : 0.984 Venus : 0.951 Earth : 1.000 Mars : 0.713 The Earth's average density is 5514 kilograms per cubic meter.
What is the rank of the terrestrial planets in order of density?
The rank of terrestrial planets in order of density from highest to lowest is Mercury, Earth, Venus, and Mars. Mercury has the highest density due to its large iron core, while Mars has the lowest density among the terrestrial planets.
What average density do the terrestrial planets have?
The terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) have average densities ranging from 3.34 g/cm³ for Mercury to 5.52 g/cm³ for Earth. These densities are higher compared to the gas giants in our solar system, due to the terrestrial planets being primarily composed of rock and metal rather than gas.
What Percent Of Earth's Density Does Jupiter Have?
Jupiter has about 24.8% of the average density of Earth. This is due to Jupiter being a gas giant composed mostly of hydrogen and helium, whereas Earth is a terrestrial planet made up of rock and metal.
How do the sizes of the terrestrial planets compare to the gas giants?
The average terrestrial planet has only about 10.3% of the diameter and 0.4% of the mass of the average gas giant.
Which terrestrial planet is least dense?
There are for terrestrial planets which are also the planets nearest to the sun. The four terrestrial planets are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The least dense planet among the four is Mars.
The Moon's average density is about the same as the density of which of the Earth's layers?
The moon's average density is about the same as the density of mantle of the Earth.
What could explain the fact that Mars has a somewhat lower average density than the other terrestrial planets?
Mars has a lower average density than other terrestrial planets primarily due to its smaller size, which results in a lower overall mass and gravitational influence. Additionally, its composition is believed to include a higher proportion of lighter elements and compounds, such as silicates and ices, compared to denser materials like iron and nickel found in Earth and Venus. This difference in composition, along with its smaller iron core relative to its size, contributes to Mars' lower density.
