Question

Information about five planets is shown in the table below.

Answer 1

Answer:

(a)Jupiter

(b)24.4 km

(c)$1.33 \times 10^{27} kg$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The planet with the greatest ma.ss is Jupiter.

It has a ma.ss of $1.898 X 10^{27} kg$

Part B

The diameter of Mercury = 4.88 X 10

Radius = Diameter/2

Therefore:

Radius of Mercury

$=\dfrac{4.88 X 10}{2}\\ =2.44 X 10\\=24.4 km$

Part C

$M a.ss of Saturn = 5.68 X 10^{26}\\ Mass of Jupiter = 1.898 X 10^{27}\\ Difference in their ma.ss =(1.898 X 10^{27})-(5.68 X 10^{26})\\=1.33 \times 10^{27} kg$
