Why does it take Pluto the longest time to make a complete revolution around the sun?

Pluto has the longest orbit in length as it is further away from the sun than the other planets. If we model the orbit of all the planets as perfect circles, we can see that planets further from the sun give orbits which are larger circles, and larger circle have larger circumferences, which are the longer orbits. Even if the planets orbited at the same speed, Pluto would take longer to orbit as it has further to travel.
Pluto doesn't orbit at the same speed as other planets - it orbits more slowly. This means it takes even longer to orbit the sun. It orbits more slowly as it is further out and the sun exerts less of a gravitational force on Pluto than on the other planets, and it is this gravitational force which causes objects to orbit around the sun. In fact, the sun exerts 1600 times as much force on Earth than on Pluto.

Which planet takes maximum period to complete 1 revolution around the sun?
If you still consider Pluto to be a planet, then the answer is Pluto, which completes one revolution around the sun in 248 years. If you agree with the downgrading of Pluto to something less than a full-fledged planet, then the answer is Neptune. The general rule is: The farther a planet is from the sun on the average, the longer it takes to complete its orbital revolution.
How old would you have to be to witness one complete revolution of the planet Pluto?
To witness one complete revolution of the planet Pluto, you would have to be at least 248 years old.
How long for year at Pluto?
Year is the amount of time it takes the Earth to revolve around the sun. It takes Pluto about 250 years to complete one revolution about the sun.
Did Pluto complete a trip around the Sun as a planet?
While Pluto was discovered in 1930 and was considered fully a planet for 76 years, and it takes 248 years for it to complete one revolution, it did not complete one full revolution in the time those on Earth have known of it. But, Pluto has existed for about four and a half billion years, and in that time can be expected to have completed 18,145,161.3 orbits of Sol.
Which planet take the longest time to make 1 revolution around the sun?
Technically, since Pluto is no longer a planet, but a dwarf planet, Uranus is the planet that takes the longest to orbit the sun.
How many days does Pluto takes to complete its revolution around the sun?

Is Pluto the fastest to orbit the sun?
Quite the contrary, Pluto is the slowest to orbit the sun. Each of the nine planets and their orbits in earth days and years are listed below: Mercury - 87.96 days Venus - 224.68 days Earth - 365.26 days Mars - 686.98 days Jupiter - 11.862 years Saturn - 29.456 years Uranus - 84.07 years Neptune - 164.81 years Pluto - 247.7 years
How old would you have to be to witness a complete revolution of the planet Pluto?

What planet has the longest revolution?
If you mean revolution on it axis (spin/day length) rather than orbital period, then the answer is the planet Mercury, where time between sunrises is roughly 176 Earth days.
How long does it take for Pluto to travel once around the sun?
248 years. Since its discovery in 1930, Pluto has only completed a little less than 1/3rd of a complete revolution.
