Earth Planet Kepler-10C. Due to its size — 2.3 times that of earth — it was assumed. The force of gravity on kepler 10c would be around 3 times due to its mass and strong gravity kepler 10c is a very dense planet with elements being highly compressed.
Its discovery was announced in 2011. Its mass is 7.37 earths, it takes 45.3 days to complete one orbit of its star, and is 0.241 au from its star. A year on the planet lasts 45 earth days.
Kepler 10c has earned the nickname godzilla of earths.
Related research shows that about 75 percent of the planets found with nasa's kepler space telescope are less than four times earth's diameter. This suggested it fell into a category of planets.
