Ranking of the objects from left to right based on their orbital period around the sun from shortest to longest
- a typical asteroid in the asteroid belt
- a typical Oort cloud object
Step-by-step explanation:
Half the mass of the belt is present in the largest four asteroids, they are ceres, vesta, pallas and hygiea. The asteroid belt total mass is 4% than that of moon, 22% Pluto.
