They are two different objects with different orbits. Pluto is a dwarf planet, and Quaoar might be a dwarf planet, but is right now classified as a minor planet. They also probably have very different compositions, but we don't know much about Pluto and even less about Quaoar.
What else can I help you with?
Where is planet Quaoar?
Quaoar is not a planet, though it may be a dwarf planet. Quaoar is located in the Kuiper Belt beyond the orbit of Neptune. It orbits the sun at a somewhat greater distance than Pluto does.
What are 2 difference between Pluto?
You need two objects between which you can have differences!
How is Pluto more like Quaoar and Sedna than it is like Neptune?
Pluto, Sedna, and Quaoar are all solid objects with icy surfaces and are small when compared to the planets of the solar system. Saturn is a giant planet primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. It does not have a solid surface.
Is Pluto the only dwarf planet you know of?
There are several other dwarf planets in addition to Pluto. These include Eris, Sedna, Quaoar, Orcus, Makemake, Haumea, and the large asteroid Ceres.
How long is a day on Quaoar?
A day on Quaoar, which is a large Kuiper Belt object located beyond Pluto, is approximately 17.7 hours long. This makes it among the fastest rotating objects in the solar system.
Where is Pluto sedna and quaoar?
Pluto is located in the Kuiper Belt, a region of the outer solar system beyond the orbit of Neptune. Sedna is a distant dwarf planet located in the outer region of the solar system beyond the Kuiper Belt. Quaoar is also a dwarf planet located in the Kuiper Belt.
What are the differences between Pluto an a asteroid?
Pluto is technically an asteroid, but it's unusual in that it is ball-shaped. most asteroids are too small to form a ball shape.
What is Quaoar's orbital period?
Quaoar's orbital period is 287.97 years or 105,101
Is Quaoar an official dwarf planet or nearly certain dwarf planet?
Quaoar is an official dwarf planet.
What are some differences between Pluto and solid inner planets?
One major difference is their size. Pluto is significantly smaller than the solid inner planets like Earth, Mars, Venus, and Mercury. Another difference is their composition. Inner planets are primarily composed of rock and metal, while Pluto is composed mostly of ice and rock. Additionally, inner planets have clear and defined orbits around the Sun, while Pluto's orbit is more eccentric and tilted.
What are the 5 dwarf planets names in the solar system?
Five official dwarf planets are currently recognised by the IAU. Ceres (in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter) is the smallest, then Haumea, then Makemake, then Pluto and finally Eris, which is the largest. There are several other candiates, but these cant be confirmed as official dwarf planets until their shape can be determined.
What are the two main differences between the gas giants and Pluto?
Two main differences between Pluto and it's gas giant neighbours are:1. Size - The gas planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus) are huge compared to Pluto. Neptune, the smallest of the gas giants, has a diameter that is over 20x that of Pluto, and a mass that is more than 7786x that of Pluto. In fact, compared to Earth, Pluto is tiny, with a diameter that is less than 0.02% that of Earth and a mass that is less than 19% that of Earth!2. Composition - The gas planets are, as their name suggests, composed of gas. Pluto, on the other hand, is rocky. Although the exact composition of Pluto has yet to be verified, it is estimated that it is made up of 50-70% rock and 30-50% ice.
