ASTA01H3 Final: the mnemonic stuff of the final exam
Document Summary
Jupiter must have a rocky-type core about 10 earth mass. Stable flow underlies zones and bands called zonal flow. The right wind with respect to the internal rotation. The composition of atmosphere: hydrogen, helium, small amount of ammonia, methane and water vapor. The color is due to the complex chemical interactions. High speed in great depth is due to inner heat. The plasma torus results from particles emitted by volcanic eruptions on lo. Density decreases as distance from the jupiter increase, similar to terrestrial planets. Jupiter emits about twice as much as energy as it received from the sun. Io is the most active object in solar system. Europa and jupiter can provide energy of volcanoes. Europa has no craters, covered by water ice, liquid water below. Ganymede is the largest moon in solar system. It has its own magnetic field which is the only one moon has.
