Describe two ways earth is like the other planets in our solar system?

it is a planet and it has a similar shape like the rest of the planets.


What percentage of planets is smaller than Earth?

50% (including Pluto)37.5% (not including Pluto)


Which planet has 300 times greater mass than earth?

In our Solar System, Jupiter has approximately that mass. Many of the extrasolar planets discovered so far have similar masses as well.


Do electrons have the mass as protons?

Protons are part of the nucleus, so they have less mass than the nucleus (except in the specific case of hydrogen, where the nucleus is a single proton so they have the same mass).Electrons are much less massive than protons. It would take 1836 electrons to equal the mass of one proton.Neutrons are very slightly more massive than protons, by just about the mass of an electron. They're close enough that they're generally treated as having essentially the same mass.


Are subatomic and little particles the same thing?

Atoms are composed of protons, electrons and neutrons (save hydrogen-1, which lacks any neutrons). Protons and neutrons are baryons, which are made up of three quarks. Having said that, the quark, which is a fundamental particle, is smaller than an atom by a great deal. Further, the quark is smaller than either a proton or neutron, as both are made of three quarks. The electron is a fundamental particle, and it is smaller still than a quark.When we look at the fundamental particles as they are described in the Standard Model, only the photon and gluon, which are force carriers, are smaller. It should be noted that the way we relate "smaller" in this case is by stating a mass-energy equivalence and describing the mass of the fundamental particles in terms of energy. Use the link below to see a chart of the sixteen particles that make up the three generations of matter.

Which planet is smaller tha Ganymede?

Mercury is smaller in diameter, but not in mass. If you include dwarf planets, than it is also larger in diameter than Eris and Pluto, however once again it is smaller in mass.


Which plants are smaller than earth?

There are many planets smaller than Earth, including Mercury, Mars, and Venus. While these planets vary in size, they are all smaller than Earth in terms of diameter and mass.


Are dwarf planets smaller than inner planets?

Yes, all of the dwarf planets are smaller than the smallest inner planet (Mercury).


Which planets are lighter than earth?

The planets that have less mass than Earth are Mercury, Mars and Venus. The planets that have a lower average density than Earth are all of them; Earth is the most dense planet in our solar system.


Why does venus have lower gravity than earth?

Venus has lower gravity than Earth because it has a smaller mass than Earth. Gravity is directly proportional to the mass of a planet, so planets with smaller masses will have lower gravitational forces.


Are the rockey planets larger or smaller than the gas planets?

smaller


Are gas planets smaller than dwarf planets?

No. All of the objects in out solar system labeled as dwarf planets are smaller than the smallest of the planets. The gas planets are the largest planets.


What is the difference between dwarf planets and regular planets?

Dwarf planets are smaller than regular planets. Dwarf planets are smaller than the 8 major planets of our solar system. They are not quite planets as they have not cleared their orbit of sufficient matter. They are roughly spherical in shape and orbit the sun directly, so fulfil these two criteria, but have not achieved the third (sufficiently clearing their orbits).

Why are stars different from planets?

Planets and StarsPlanets are comparatively smaller than stars and they don't have their own light, their mass is much lesser, their gravitational force is comparatively weak, etc.
