Answer: The diameter of the drawing of the planet= 10 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In a drawing of the solar system the scale is 1 mm = 500 km

which means $1\ km=\frac{1}{500}mm$ on the drawing.

The diameter of planet =5000 kilometers .

Then the diameter of the drawing of the planet= $\frac{5000}{500}=10\ mm$

Therefore, the diameter of the drawing of the planet= 10 mm.
