What do the outer planets have that the inner planets do not have?
outer planets are gas giants whille inner planets are just rocky planets. that includes that outer planets have significant amount of mass than the inner planets
Inner planets compared to outer planets?
The inner planets, also known as terrestrial planets, are smaller, rocky planets located closer to the Sun. They include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. In contrast, the outer planets, also known as gas giants, are larger, gaseous planets located farther from the Sun. They include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
What are the general characteristics of the 4 outer and 4 inner planets?
The 4 inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are solid planets made of rock. The 4 outer planets are gas giants.
How are the inner and outer planets different?
There are a lot of differences between the inner and outer planets. First of all, they inner planets are also known as the "Rocky planets". THey are rocky, hence their name "Rocky planets". And the outer planets are also known as "Gas Giants." THey are mainly composed of gas, hence their name, "Gas Giants." Another difference is their mass. The outer planets have greater mass than the inner planets. In other words, they are heavier.The inner planets follow orbital paths which, like those of the outer planets,are centered on the sun. But the inner planets, without exception, are nearerto the sun than any of the outer planets are.
Are the inner planets smaller than the outer planets?
Yes, the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are smaller than the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune). The outer planets are known as gas giants and are much larger in size compared to the inner terrestrial planets.
What do the inner planets consit of?
The inner planets are rocky and the outer planets are gas giants.
Why did the inner planets not collect gas like gas giants did?
The Sun's gravitational force is theorized to have swept up so much gas in the area of the inner planets and prevented them from acquiring much additional material from their surroundings. Thus, the inner planets initially ended up with no satellites.
What planets can be found in the solar system?
inner planets and gas giants
What do the outer planets have that the inner planets do not have?
outer planets are gas giants whille inner planets are just rocky planets. that includes that outer planets have significant amount of mass than the inner planets
What chracteristics do to the inner planets sharewhat characteristics do the outter planets share?
I do no know what the inner planets share but the outer planets except Pluto are gas giants. inner our "rocky" ^_^
How do the sizes of inner planets compare to the sizes of gas giants?
The sizes of inner planets are generally smaller compared to the sizes of the gas giants. The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The gas giants are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
How do the sizes of the inner planets compare to the sizes of the gas giant planets?
inner planets are small and outer planets are big and cold and gas giants.
Inner planets have large diameters like those of the gas giants?
Not in our solar system. The inner planets are smaller.
Are the rocky planets larger or smaller compared to gas giants?
The rocky inner planets are much smaller. That's why the giants are called giants.
Is this true or false that the inner plants are gas giants and the outer planets are rocky?
False. The outer planets are gas giants (although they have a solid core). The inner planets are 'rocky'.
What makes the inner planets different from the outer planets?
The inner planets are small and rocky, the outer planets are much larger and have no solid surface, they are called the gas giants.
Are inner planets gas giants?
No, the inner planets are the terrestrial or rocky planets. The outer planets are the gas giant planets; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. They are mainly made up of Hydrogen and Helium gas.
