• Mars

Which planets are more massive than Earth?

• Mars and Venus

• Jupiter and Saturn

• Mercury and Neptune

• Earth and Uranus

What is the average density of Saturn?

• 0.69 g/cm³

• 1.2 g/cm³

• 0.5 g/cm³

• 1.0 g/cm³

What is the eccentricity of an orbit?

• A measure of how circular an orbit is, ranging from 0 to 1.

• A measure of how much an orbit deviates from being circular, ranging from 0 (perfect circle) to 1 (parabolic).

• The distance between the foci of an orbit divided by the length of the major axis.

• The speed of an object in orbit around a celestial body.

What is the planet with the highest density?

• Jupiter

• Earth

• Saturn

• Mars

Which two planets have nearly similar densities?

• Earth and Venus

• Mars and Jupiter

• Saturn and Neptune

• Mercury and Uranus

What is the average density of Earth?

• 4.50 g/cm³

• 5.52 g/cm³

• 6.00 g/cm³

• 7.20 g/cm³

What does it mean if a planet has a density less than 1 g/cm³?

• It means the planet is less dense than water and would float if placed in a large enough body of water.

• It indicates that the planet is made entirely of gas and has no solid surface.

• It suggests that the planet is extremely cold and has frozen over completely.

• It implies that the planet is very small and has low gravitational pull.

What is the formula for calculating density?

• Density = Mass + Volume

• Density = Mass - Volume

• Density = Mass / Volume

• Density = Mass * Volume

What is the density of a planet?

• Density is the mass of a planet divided by its volume, typically expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).

• Density is the total weight of a planet divided by its surface area.

• Density is the gravitational pull of a planet divided by its radius.

• Density is the temperature of a planet divided by its atmospheric pressure.
