Is my planet realistic?

+0
−0

Is my planet realistic? It doesn't need to be able to support life as it's just another planet in my solar system, but is a planet with such a high density and gravity really possible? I calculated the density and gravity with the following equation:

$$\text{Gravity} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Radius}^2}$$

$$\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$$

And these are the values for my planet:

Mass - 0.4 Earth masses

Radius - 0.3 Earth radius

Gravity - 4.44 Earth gravity

Density - 3.54 Earth density
