Which scale diagram best compares the size of earth with the size of venus?
To compare the sizes of Earth and Venus, a scale diagram that accurately represents their diameters is most effective. Earth has a diameter of about 12,742 km, while Venus has a diameter of approximately 12,104 km. A diagram illustrating these diameters side by side would clearly show that Venus is slightly smaller than Earth, with both planets being similar in size and often referred to as "sister planets." A scale diagram that visually represents these dimensions in proportion will provide the best comparison.
How exactly far away wold planets be in a small replica size?
The distance between planets in a small replica model would vary depending on the scale used for the model. For example, using a 1:100 scale, Earth would be about 1.5 meters away from the Sun, while Mars would be about 5.6 meters away. Adjusting the scale will change the distances accordingly.
If earth was the size of a pea what about jupiter and pluto?
If Earth was the size of a pea, Jupiter would be about the size of a grapefruit, and Pluto would be roughly the size of a blueberry. The scale of these planets would be greatly reduced compared to their actual sizes.
How would scientists learn about Saturn being over a million miles away from earth?
They can scale the planets' relative distances from Kepler's laws. The absolute distance to Venus can be measured by its parallax seen from different places on the Earth's surface simultaneously. From those measurements the distance to Saturn and all the other planets can be calculated.
Why do you think that astronomy is considered to be an Earth science?
Astronomy is one of the space sciences, but it is often combined academically, into the category of Earth and Space sciences, both of which are involved in large scale observations about the universe in which we live. Astronomers study planets in general (among other celestial objects), and the Earth is a planet.
How many kilometres are the planets away compared to earth using earth as a scale of 1 earth equals 1 centimetre?
Well. still much.
What do astronomers use to measure planets?
Planets' sizes are measured from their angular width as seen from the Earth. The basic scale of distances is calibrated by measurements of Venus from different points on Earth at the time of a transit of Venus.
If sun and planets shown to scale how small would the earth be if the sun was a softball?
Earth would be the size of a coarse grain of sand just under a millimeter in diameter.
What is Q-Sort scale?
this determine very quickly among a reletively large number of objects .
Earth ranks what on the planetary size scale?
The Earth is the largest non-gas-giant planet in the solar system, placing it 5th of the 8 major planets in size. (Venus is slightly smaller.)

What is the size of mars in comparrison to the other planets?
Its Equatorial radius about 3,396.2 Km which makes it 0.533 Earths.See the photo of (from left to right) Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars to scale:
What is a three-diemensional scale model of earth called?
a 3D scale model of earth
Think about plotting the distances as points on a number line where 0 represents the position of the Sun. what is one challenge of modeling the distances of inner and outer planets using the same scale?
The distance between an inner planet and the Sun is small compared with the distance between an outer planet and the Sun. If inner and outer planets are drawn to the same scale on a number line, the inner planets will bunch near zero (the Sun’s position) and might appear on top of one another.
