Cthe Moon. D) Pluto E) Venus. 17) 17) which of the following is not a characteristic of the inner planets?

B) 10 billion C) 100 million D) 1 trillion E) 100 billionExplanation / Answer
14. C) the rings of saturn. This is not an exception to the general patterns of motion in the solar system.
15. A) Earth. The densest planet in our solar system is the Earth having density 5.5 g/cm3
16. E) Venus. This is the planet which is closest in size to earth. The ratio of radius of Earth and Venus is 1 : 0.95.
17. Here you have to choose which is not characteristic of inner planets, but all the options given are characteristic of inner planets. Only the option A is not totally correct, because out of four, three planets have substaintial atmosphere except mercury. So, you can choose option A.
18. C) Hydrogen and helium. This is the main constituents of the jovian planets.
19. D) between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Because the asteroid belt is present between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
20. E) Asteroids are rockey bodies and are denser than the comets, which are made up of icy material.
21. E) 100 billion.
