Practice question from chapter text

Which quantities should be used to compare planets?

سیاروں کے موازنے میں کون سی مقداریں لیں؟

Solution & explanation

Compare orbital distance, diameter/radius, mass, mean density, surface gravity, atmosphere and temperature, and distinguish orbital from rotation period. Larger size alone does not imply higher density or gravity. Specify comparable units and whether a quoted temperature is surface, cloud-top or average.
