Why does Mercury have an average density that is close to that of earth even though Mercury is a smaller planet?
That might be an indication that Mercury has a similar composition to Earth. For more details, check the Wikipedia articles on Earth, and Mercury, to see what is believed to be inside each planet.
Is Mercury bigger than earth?
Yes, the Earth is bigger than Mercury. Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system (not counting Pluto, which is not considered a true planet anymore). Mercury is 38% (a little more than 1/3) the size of Earth.
Which planet has 322 more days than Earth?
Mercury has 322 more days than Earth, as it completes an orbit around the sun in about 88 Earth days.
Which planet is close to sun mercury or Jupiter?
Mercury is the first, nearest, closest planet to the sun. Then comes Venus, Earth, Mars and Jupiter. Followed by Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Pluto is considered a "Dwarf" planet, not a real planet, more like a moon than a planet.
Is mercury a tiny cratered planet?
Mercury has a great many craters and is the smallest planet in the solar system, its diameter being about 38 percent of the diameter of Earth but more than double the diameter of the dwarf planet Pluto.

Does the earth have more gravity than mercury?
Yes, the bigger the planet the more gravity.

How dense is the planet mercury?
The density of Mercury is 5.4 grams per cc, only a little lower than that of the densest planet - Earth. One of the reasons that the Earth is denser is that its own gravity compresses its material more than it does in the smaller planet, Mercury. If adjustment were made for this gravitational compression, then Mercury would have a density of approx 5.3 g per cc compared to the Earth's 4.4 making Mercury the densest planet.
Is Jupiters moon big as earth?
Jupiter's largest Moon is Ganymede. It is slightly larger than the planet Mercury. As the Earth is more massive than Mercury, the answer is no.
What planet has the greater amount of gravitational force mercury or earth?
it's almost the same ... but earth's is a little bit more
What is the definition of Terrestrial Planet?
A terrestrial planet is a planet that is primarily composed of silicate rocks.
What planet is less then one-half the length of Earth's diameter?
The smallest planet in our Solar System is Mercury. The second-smallest is Mars, which has MORE than half of Earth's diameter.
Which planet has 322 more days than Earth?
Mercury has 322 more days than Earth, as it completes an orbit around the sun in about 88 Earth days.
What is the planet Mercury's position from Earth?
Mercury orbits the Sun closer than Earth; as a result, from our point of view, its angular distance from the Sun can never be more than about 28 degrees.
What planet diameter is less one-half the length of earth's diameter?
The smallest planet in our Solar System is Mercury. The second-smallest is Mars, which has MORE than half of Earth's diameter.
