The radius if Jupiter is 11 times the radius of the Earth. Calulate the ratio of the volumes of jupiter and the Earth. How many Earths can Jupiter accommodate?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If the radius of the Earth is r.
Then, radius of the Jupiter is 11r.
So, ratio of the volumes of Jupiter and the Earth is
`((4)/(3) pi (11r)^(3))/( (4)/(3) pi r^(3)) = 1331:1`
So , 1331 Earths can accommodate within the Jupiter .
