Problem 3 scale of the solar system the real diameters of the sun and earth are approximately 1.4 million kilometers and 12,800 kilometers, respectively. the earth-sun distance is approximately 150 million kilometers. calculate the sizes of earth and the sun, and the distances between them in a scale model that is one 10-billionth the size of the actual solar system. show your work clearly.

Explanation:

Let the diameter of the Sun in the model  be = x

Scale used in the model =

The real diameters of the Sun ,D= 1.4 million kilometers =

The diameter of the sun in the model is 14 cm.

The real diameters of the Earth,d = 12,800 km

Let the diameter of the Earth in the model  be = y

Scale used in the model =

The diameter of the Earth in the model is 0.128 cm.

The Earth-Sun distance ,l =

Let the Earth-Sun distance in the model  be = z

The distances between Earth-Sun in the model is 1500 cm.

the following sets of characteristics describe what we know about the outer plants is c. rocky surface, closet to the sun and larger in size
