1- tsunami warnings can now go through on phones and television, long before it happens to give people chance to escape
2- more countries can afford better tsunami-proof buildings which can withstand a tsunami
3- air travel is far more developed and can afford to get large amounts of idols out of the country quicker

Which ideas did you include in your answer? check all that apply. inner planets rotate slower. outer planets rotate faster. inne

ser-zykov [4K]

Planet A is an outer planet, and Planet B is an inner planet, then Planet A will spin (rotate on its axis) faster than Planet B.

Using our Solar System as a model, we may determine the following:

The inner planets, which include our Earth, Mercury, Venus, and Mars, revolve more slowly than the outer planets (such as Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune). The reason for this is because the nearest planets are held firmly in place as they revolve around the Sun due to the massive gravitational field of the star.

However, for the same reason (because of their proximity to the Sun's gravitational field), inner planets complete one circle around the Sun faster than outer planets.

As a result, Planet A will spin (rotation on its axis) faster than Planet B if Planet A is an outer planet and Planet B is an inner planet.
