What is the main difference between the inner planets and the outer planets?
The inner planets are smaller, and do not have the dense atmospheres of the outer planets. The four inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) have warmer temperatures than the exteriors of the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune).The "gas giants" have very hot lower atmospheres, caused by the intense pressure. The atmospheres are mostly hydrogen, but for Uranus and Neptune there are higher levels of water, methane, and ammonia. All of the gas giants have multiple moons and rings, the most visible being the ice rings around Saturn.they are divided by inner and outer and the outer planet are the planets that have bigger planets.
What characteristics do all outer planets share?
All outer planets are gas giants, composed mostly of hydrogen and helium. They have no solid surfaces and are much larger than the inner planets. They are located beyond the asteroid belt in our solar system.
What are three ways the inner planets are different ftom the outter planets?
Inner planets are rocky and terrestrial, while outer planets are gas giants. Inner planets are smaller in size and have solid surfaces, while outer planets are larger and lack a solid surface. Inner planets have shorter orbital periods and are closer to the sun, while outer planets have longer orbital periods and are farther from the sun.
What distinguish the inner and outer planets?
This is a very basic answer, but maybe it's what you're looking for. The inner planets are rocky, have no rings, and are smaller. The outer planets are large, gaseous, and have rings.
What outer planet is a gas giant?
All four outer planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are gas giants.
Are all of the outer planets gaseous giants with thick atmospheres?
I don't think so.
What are characteristics of the outer planets?
made of gaseous material, craters, rings, and large families of satellite's.
What characteristics set the inner planets apart from the outer planet and name the outer planets?
The inner planets are all rocky planets, whereas the outer planets are gas giants. Pluto is the exception. The outer planets also make 99% of our planets and are outside the asteroid belt.
How are all outer planets similar to each other?
All outer planets in our solar system are gas giants, made up mostly of hydrogen and helium. They have thick atmospheres and lack solid surfaces. Additionally, they all have ring systems and multiple moons.
What are characteristics of outer planets?
They are all gas giants.
What do the inner planets have incommon?
They are all solid masses, i.e. not gaseous bodies like the outer planets.
Why are the outer planets call the gas giants?
The outer planets (with the exception of the dwarf planet - Pluto) are called "gas giants" for two reasons - they are GIANT (in size/mass/gravity etc.) compared to Earth and the inner solar system "rocky" or "terrestrial" planets and are composed mainly of a gaseous atmosphere (with, its hypothesized, a small rocky core at the center).
Is earth mostly gas or rocks?
Earth is made mostly of rock. It has comparatively small amounts of liquid and gaseous components. The four innermost planets of the Solar System have this in common with Earth, while the outer, non-dwarf planets are all gas giants, in which gaseous elements comprise the vast majority of the mass of the planets.
What is the characteristics of the outer planets?
All outer planets have a gaseous atmosphere and are larger than planets the inner planets it also takes them longer to rotate the sun they are typically colder and have more moons.
Are all inner planets called gas giants?
No that's what the four outer planets are called.
Are all of the outer planets gas planets?
The outer planets include: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto (a dwarf planet). They are mostly huge (besides Pluto) and mostly gaseous.
Are all the planet around the solar rock and sand?
No. The outer planets are gas giants and ice giants.
