These planets are mainly composed of rocks or other metal objects that have a hard and resistant surface on it. They have a metal core that is molten (liquid) in nature, and atmosphere is relatively less dense, and also various geological features are present on it like the crater, volcanoes which can be observed with the help of satellites. The average densities of these planets is about four times the density of water. For example, the density of water is 1 g/cm³, whereas the density of earth is 5.5 g/cm³.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

How are lasers used to determine the distance from earth to the moon?
mezya [45]
A beam of laser is directed at a reflecting surface put on the moon when the beam of laser is reflected a receiver on the each measure the time since the beam was sent till it was received. Laser is simply light so it has constant velocity in vacuum ~ air  (c = 3 x 10^8 m/s)

to find the distance:

t : time measured between launching the beam and receiving it 

d : distance

d = ct
