AA Free electrons Jupiter must have lots of. Its the planet with the
most static electricity,and that means lightning. I realize it must have a bulge,but looking at the planet it looks so very round,and I was hoping to actually see a bigger bulge(more out of round). Go figure is really just a sign off.Go figure TreBert |

This relatively pronounced bulge is due to Jupiter's rapid rotation rate of 9 hrs 56 mins, and the fact that Jupiter is made up of gas. Imagine a ball of loosely-held material being spun rapidly. The high-speed rotation would cause the ball to bulge at its midsection. This is exactly what happens to Jupiter. In the case of Jupiter, observing surface features to calculate rotation rate would be impossible due to differential rotation of Jupiter's atmosphere. Astronomers had to resort to observing the period of radio emissions from Jupiter's magnetosphere." http://library.thinkquest.org/17445/sol/Jupiter.shtml Double-A |

Jupiter & questions on its Spin???
AA Nice post,and thanks for that information. My thinking was such fast
spinning gas should show more stretching out at the equator. My picture of Jupiter does not show this. My thinking that the waters around the earth's equator does not make for much deeper oceans than the water at the poles also gives me a puzzlement. Well the earth is out of round by 13 miles,but not done really by water bulge. Compared to Jupiter's spin earth is a slow poke. go figure TreBert Ps Since friction creates heat I wonder how much heat is from friction of its gasses and ammonia clouds. I know it gives off 2.5 times more heat than it gets from the Sun. |

Tidally induced, my ASS, BradBoi! lmfjao!
The Earth's primordal heat has been greatly supplimented by the decay of radioactive elements.

To Ya All(Fl Talk) I find it interesting that the large gas planets
spin on average 3 times faster than rock planets. That needs explaining. little Pluto takes 6 Earth days to make one turn around. Venus spins at a fast walk etc. Anyone got a reason.? If not I will post mine in two days. i think Mercury takes about 59 Earth days. I have a gut feeling I got the right answer TreBert |
