The following images show six objects in our solar system. Rank these objects from left to right based on their mass, from highest to lowest. (Not to scale.)
Answer:
Highest mass to Lowest mass:
Sun
Jupiter
Earth
Mars
Mercury
Pluto
Feedback: Be sure to notice that the masses of these objects are vastly different. For example, the Sun is more than 1,000 times as massive as all the planets combined, and Jupiter is more massive than all the rest of the planets combined.
