Please put all of these in correct order 

 List these objects or regions of space in order of increasing size

A. diameter of the Sun; B. diameter of the Big Dipper; C. diameter of Jupiter’s orbit; D. distance from us to the nearest star; E. diameter of the Milky Way galaxy; F. diameter of the Earth; G. diameter of the Kuiper Belt (i.e., like the asteroid belt, but for icy objects); H. diameter of Jupiter

Expert Solution
Step 1 Answer

Diameter of the sun= 1,391,000 km 

Diameter of the big dipper= 80-83 light year= 775,000,000,000,000- 785,000,000,000,000

Diameter of the Jupiter's orbit= 778,000000 km 

Distance from us to the nearest star= 150,000,000km 

Diameter of the milky way galaxy= 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 km 

Diameter of the Earth= 12756km

Diameter of the Kuiper belt= 30-55Au = 4500,000,000km- 8250,000,000km 

Diameter of the jupiter= 139820km 

In order of increasing size is= 

The Diameter of the Earth, diameter of the jupiter, Diameter of the sun, distance from the nearest star, Distance from us to the nearest star, diameter of the Jupiter's orbit, Diameter of the Kuiper belt, Diameter of the big dipper, Diameter of the milky way galaxy.
