How many elephants does Venus weigh?!?

Answer 1

i had no idea that the mythical goddess Venus was into that?

of course you may be refering to the planet... Venus - the second planet from the Sun and the sixth largest. Venus' orbit is the most nearly circular of that of any planet, with an eccentricity of less than 1%.

it has a mass: 4.869e24 kilograms including atmosphere.

but mass is not weight...Mass is a property of a physical object that quantifies the amount of matter and energy it is equivalent to. Passive gravitational mass is a measure of the strength of an object's interaction with the gravitational field. Within the same gravitational field, an object with a smaller passive gravitational mass experiences a smaller force than an object with a larger passive gravitational mass. (This force is called the weight of the object. In informal usage, the word "weight" is often used synonymously(confused with) with "mass", because the strength of the gravitational field is roughly constant everywhere on the surface of the Earth. In physics, the two terms are distinct: an object will have a larger weight if it is placed in a stronger gravitational field, but its passive gravitational mass remains unchanged.)

Possessing sulfuric acid clouds, the atmosphere of Venus is mostly carbon dioxide (96 percent), nitrogen (3.5 percent), and carbon monoxide, argon, sulfur dioxide, and water vapor (all less than 1 percent). The atmosphere is so thick and heavy that it bends light, making the ground appear to curve upward in all directions. The planet's atmosphere is ninety times heavier than Earth's.

In contrast, its gravity, is .91 of earths, so if you had 100kilos on Earth, they would weigh only 91 kilos on Venus. Where are these elephants going to be measured? And is this a real elephant, or an average elephant, because the largest elephant ever recorded was shot in Angola in 1956. It was male and weighed about 12,000 kg (26,400 lb). African or Indian?

Answer 2

I know a girl named venus She weighs 1 elephant

Answer 3

Its a trick question. Depends on whether the elephants are weighed on Venus or on Earth.

Ha!

Answer 4

Hmm if im not wrong if and elephant weighs 500kg each..... then it would take AT LEAST 400billion i guess.....(anyway who would ask something so weird?)

Answer 5

i'm not even prepared on her even if it sounds to me such as you're in undemanding terms some jealous little woman who desires she might have the fulfillment of somebody like Kim Clijsters. examine it decrease back lower back, can not you spot how pathetic you sound?!? that is ridiculous. only advance up. i'm unwell of stupid little little ones on right here, thinking they are clever. only advance UP!

Answer 6

billions upon billions ( but since Venus is not in a planetary gravity field - it is a planetary gravity field - it has no weight at all - hey this is in trivia )

Answer 7

Paul M would ask something this weird. That's who!

Answer 8

....... Double as many as half ......
