Mr reid's science class is developing a scale model of the solar system where the 1,392,000 diameter of the sun is scaled to 1.0 and given that 1 astronomical unit, AU, equals 1.5 x 108 km. Will this model fit in the classroom?

Respuesta :

Answer: This model will fit in the classroom.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Scale model of the solar system :

Diameter of the solar system is given by

[tex]1392000=1.392\times 10^6\ km[/tex]

And the astronomical unit is equal to

[tex]AU=1.5\times 10^8\ km[/tex]

So, we can see that

[tex]AU>Diameter[/tex]

Hence, This model will fit in the classroom.
