Geography

They are made from the materials on the earths surface and in bodies of water from erosion and weathering. In the simplest way possible to explain, these materials get compacted into a rock by water, wind, ice, or glaciers. I used to think of it as the materials are "settling" in, because it sounds kinda like sediment.

What is the core of Jupiter thought to be composed of?
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The atmosphere of Jupiter is 90 percent hydrogen. The remaining 10 percent is almost completely made up of helium, though there are small traces of other gases inside.

Explanation:

Composed predominantly of hydrogen and helium, the massive Jupiter is much like a tiny star. But despite the fact that it is the largest planet in the solar system, the gas giant just doesn't have the mass needed to push it into stellar status.

The atmosphere of Jupiter is 90 percent hydrogen. The remaining 10 percent is almost completely made up of helium, though there are small traces of other gases inside.

These gases pile on top of one another, forming layers that extend downward. Because there is no solid ground, the surface of Jupiter is defined as the point where the atmospheric pressure is equal to that of Earth. At this point, the pull of gravity is almost two and a half times stronger than it is on our planet.

What Transport challenges do Australians face?
Novay_Z [31]
I think the baby kangaroos have a pretty sweet ride they just kinda chill in the pouch till they get where they’re going. If australia got rid of their cars and started implementing more kangaroo friendly roadways perhaps they could create new infrastructure to involve kangaroos in the transportation industry.
