Question

Jupiter's differential rotation and complex atmospheric structure induce turbulent storms, such as the Great Red Spot. Identify the statements that correctly describe the characteristics of storm systems on Jupiter.

Answer 1

• On Jupiter, the larger the storm, the longer it can last.
• The Individual storm systems can interact, resulting in the storm growing or fading out.
• The Storms are localized features, confined and powered by zonal flow.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Jupiter being the fifth largest planet in the solar system is a gas giant and is the brightest object visible to the naked eyes, and is primarily composed of the hydrogen and has a mass of helium. Being far away from the sun it has turbulent and violent storms and is characterized by the rapid and fast rotation speeds and has dense core which is a mixture of elements.
