How cold and how hot is uranus?

Answer 1

The temperature would vary depending on where in the atmosphere you measured it.

The upper atmosphere of Uranus is the coldest in the Solar System, with a minimum temperature of 49 °K. It has a complex cloud structure with water clouds presumably being the deepest and methane clouds at the top.

• The minimum temperature is -224 °C (-371 °F, 49°K).
• At the pressure level equal to Earth's at sea-level (1000 millibars), it is -197°C (-322°F, 76°K).
• Uranus's water-ammonia "ocean" is extremely hot, up to 6650°C / 12,000°F near the rocky core (which cannot be directly observed).

Uranus and Neptune have different internal and atmospheric compositions from those of the larger gas giants - Jupiter and Saturn, and astronomers sometimes place them in a separate category, the "ice giants". Uranus' atmosphere, while still composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, contains a higher proportion of "ices" such as water, ammonia and methane, along with substantial hydrocarbons. These are not ice in the traditional sense because they are very dense and very hot.

The vast fluid mantle on Uranus accounts for most of the planet's mass. Scientists think this consists mostly of water molecules, which are mixed with silicate, magnesium, nitrogen-bearing molecules, and hydrocarbons (molecules composed of carbon and hydrogen).

Answer 2

Uranus is very cold, with an average temperature of about -224 degrees Celsius (-371 degrees Fahrenheit). It is one of the coldest planets in our solar system due to its distance from the sun. On the other hand, the upper atmosphere of Uranus can reach temperatures of around 570 degrees Celsius (1,058 degrees Fahrenheit) due to heat trapped within its thick clouds.

Answer 3

The average surface temperature on Uranus is approximately -224 degrees Celsius. Uranus is an outer planet that is called an ice giant. Uranus has many moons, including Oberon, Miranda, Titania, and Umbriel.

Answer 4

Uranus is usually described as the coldest planet.

Venus is the hottest.

Neptune has a very similar surface temperature to Uranus.

Neptune is further from the Sun than Uranus, but it has an internal heat source.

That means Uranus is probably just the coldest planet.

Answer 5

Very very cold. Uranus is an outer planet, and is VERY far away from the sun. And is the 7th planet from the sun.

Answer 6

Uranus' Ocean is extremely hot. It is estimated to be about 8000 degrees Fahrenheit.

Answer 7

Uranus is the coldest planet in the solar system with a minimum temperature of -224 °C.

Answer 8

It's VERY cold cause its far away from the sun

Answer 9

Ask Jerry Sandusky he knows the temperature of everyone's anus

Answer 10

Very hot, especially in the summer, and extremely cold, especially in the winter.
