Inner planets (up until Mars):
- are mostly composed of dense rocky material with high melting points;
- have small diameters;
- have high tempeatures;
- take few time to make a complete turn around the sun;
- have few or no moons;
- all have impact cracters;
Outer planets:
- are mostly composed of gases;
- have very large diameters (compared to the inner planets);
- have low temperatures;
- take a long time to make a complete turn around the sun;
- generally have several moons;
- no impact craters known (so far since no one as made it to the rocky core of these planets).
What else can I help you with?
What are the inner planets and the outer planets and how do the planets in the two groups differ?
The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The outer planets (they are separated by the asteroid belt) are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The outer planets are different than the inner planets because the outer planets are not solid. They are all made up of gas. However, the inner planets are rocky and hard.
What separates the 4 inner planets from the four outer planets?
The asteroid belt is generally regarded as the boundary between the inner solar system and the outer solar system.
What are 3 special characteristics of the three outer planets?
The inner and outer planets are The same because The Inner planets are not made out of gas The outer planets are bigger than inners The outer planets are the coldest The Inner planets are rocky The inner planets are terrestrial The outer planets can't support life The inner planets have iron cores The outer are the furthest from the sun The outer planets haveno rocky surface
Where is Jupiter located in the inner or outer of the solar system?
Jupiter is the first of the outer planets. The asteroid belt separates the inner and outer planets.
Which planets has rings the inner or outer?
Both inner and outer planets in our solar system have rings. The outer planets with rings are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. These rings are made up of pieces of rock, dust, and ice. The inner planets, like Earth and Mars, do not have rings.
How do the inner and outer planets atmosphere different?
the outer planets are gaseous and the inner planets are not
Are the inner and outer planets different?
The inner planets are all rocky planets. The outer planets are completely made up of gases. The inner planets are much smaller than the outer planets.
What are the distances between planets greater between the inner or outer planets?
The inner planets are closer together than the outer planets are.
How are the inner and outer planets alike and different?
Inner and outer planets are both part of the solar system, but they differ in composition and location. Inner planets are rocky and located closer to the sun, while outer planets are gas giants and located farther away. Both sets of planets have natural satellites, but the outer planets tend to have more moons.
What are the inner planets and the outer planets and how do the planets in the two groups differ?
The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The outer planets (they are separated by the asteroid belt) are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The outer planets are different than the inner planets because the outer planets are not solid. They are all made up of gas. However, the inner planets are rocky and hard.
How are the inner planets different than then outer planets?
The inner planets are hotter because they are the closest to the sun the outer planets are the coldest because they are the farthest planets from the sun
What distinguishes inner planets and outer planets?
Inner planets have a radius orbit shorter than the orbit of Jupiter. Outer planets are all the other planets of the solar system.
Which planets in the solar system are referred to as the inner planets and outer planets?
The 4 Inner planets (mostly rocky and solid):MercuryVenusEarthMarsThe 4 Outer planets (mostly dense gaseous atmospheres):JupiterSaturnUranusNeptuneNotes:Pluto, a dwarf planet, was an outer planet before it got reclassified, but resembles the inner planets.The inner and outer planets are separated by the asteroid belt.When dwarf planets are included, Ceres counts as an inner planet and all the other dwarf planets count as outer planets.
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.
What makes the outer planets different from inner plants?
inner=terrestrial outer=non terrestrial
What separates the 4 inner planets from the four outer planets?
The asteroid belt is generally regarded as the boundary between the inner solar system and the outer solar system.
Which planets are classified as inner planets and which are outer planets?
Very simple. We have 2 asteroid belts in our Solar System that divides the inner planets and outer planets. Very well organized and place you can tell with is the inner (closet to the sun) and which is outer (farther from the sun).
