Question
use the diagram to answer the question. what is the main problem with this model if it were going to be used to study the dimensions of the solar system? (1 point) the planets are placed at the same distance from each other. the planets are depicted in different colors. the planets are shown as having different shapes. the planets are represented in different sizes.
To study the dimensions of the solar system, the distance between planets is a key factor. In this model, the planets are placed at the same distance from each other, which is inaccurate as in reality, the distances between planets vary greatly (e.g., the distance from Mercury to Venus is much less than from Saturn to Uranus). The other options (different colors, shapes, sizes) are not relevant to studying dimensions.
