What is the difference between the first four planets and the last four planets?
The four inner planets are smaller than the four outer planets. The inner planets are made up mostly of iron and various types of rock. The outer planets are mostly hydrogen, helium, and ice. The inner planets each completely rotate in less than an earth day. The inner planets all rotate faster than the outer planets.
Are there four inner planets and four outer planets in the solar system?
Yes. Mercury, Venus, Earth, & Mars are inner planets while jupitar, saturn, uranus, and neptune are outer planets. NB For technical reasons, Pluto is not a planet nor has it been since 2006.
List the four inner planets in order of size from smallest to largest?
The inner planets in order are:MercuryVenusEarthMarsThe outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn (Gas giants), Uranus, and Neptune (Ice Giants)
Which planets are called inner planets and which are called outer planets?
The first four planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are the inner planets, because they are rocky and on the inside of the asteroid belt, and the next four planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) are the outer planets because they are light and composed of gas, and are on the outside of the asteroid belt.
What do you call the four inner planets in our solar system?
They are known as terrestrial planets. They are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.
How are inner planets and gas giants similar?
they orbit the sun and are the first four outer planets
Are all inner planets called gas giants?
No that's what the four outer planets are called.
What are the four inner or terrestrial planets?
The 4 "inner planets" are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.The solar system consists of two types of planets: terrestrial and jovian (or "gas giants"). The inner four planets, which are all terrestrial, are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars (from closest to furthest).
What kind of planets are the first four inner?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the first four inner planets. The asteroid belt is what separates the inner and outer planets from each other. There are thousands of asteroids in the asteroid belt.
How do planets farther from the sun differ from that planets that are closer to the sun?
The four outer planets are gas giants - they are much larger than the four inner planets, and they consist mainly of gas - they don't have a surface on which you can stand.
What are the four inner planets of your solar system called?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the 4 inner planets.
How big is Mother Nature compared to the other planets from your neighborhood?
The planet Earth is the largest of the four rocky inner planets; it is smaller than any of the four gas giants.
Are the Jovian planets outer planets or inner?
There are four inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars) and four outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune). So there are an equal number of inner and outer planets.
How does the length of a day on the inner four contrast with the length of a day on the outer four?
The inner four terrestrial planets have shorter days compared to the outer four gas giants. This is because the inner planets rotate more quickly due to their smaller size and proximity to the sun, while the outer gas giants rotate more slowly because of their larger size and distance from the sun.
How are the four outer planets alike?
The four outer planets are all of the type astronomers call "gas giants", and have no hard, rocky surface per se. The inner planets are all solid rocky "terrestrial" planets. Also, the four outer planets are larger in size and lesser in density than the inner planets.
What are inner planets and sometimes what are they called?
Inner planets are a group of terrestrial planets that orbit closest to the sun in our solar system. They are also known as the "rocky planets" and include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. These planets have solid surfaces, are composed mainly of rock and metal, and have relatively high densities compared to the outer gas giants.
What are the properties of the inner 4 planets?
The inner four planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. They are all classified as terrestrial planets, meaning they have solid rocky surfaces. They are smaller in size compared to the outer gas giants and are closer to the Sun. They have thinner atmospheres compared to the gas giants.
