What is the length of time it takes planetary objects to revolve around the sun?
Typically, this length of time is called a "year". Each planet's year is a different length than that of the other planets and increases as the planet is further from the Sun.
What is one orbit of the sun by a planet is called?
A year. Each planet in a solar system has a year of different length, equal to the time it takes for one complete orbit around its sun.
Is the year on every planet the same as earth?
No, each planet in our solar system has a different length of year based on its orbital period around the sun. For example, a year on Mars is about 687 Earth days, while a year on Venus is about 225 Earth days.
How is a year different on each planet?
A year on each planet is determined by its orbital period around the sun. For example, a year on Earth is around 365 days, while a year on Mars is about 687 Earth days. The length of a year on a planet is influenced by its distance from the sun and its orbital speed.
Is this true or false the length of a planet's year is determined by how fast it spins?
False, the speed it spins on it's axis determinds the length of day. The speed it rotates the sun determinds the length of it's year.
What is the length of a year on the planet ngc 3079?
NGC 3079 is a galaxy, not a planet.
Is the year on other planet same as on the earth?
A year is a measure of the time it takes a planet to make one complete circle (circuit) around the Sun. Each planet in our Solar system has a different length year. To make things simple, astronomers can use the number of Earth years a planet takes to orbit the Sun once. Everyone understands time expressed in Earth days.
What planet has a length of year closest to ours?
mars
What determines the length of an entire year on a planet?
The time it takes for any given planet to make one complete revolution around its sun determines the length of its year.
How are the surface temp and length of year on a planet related to the planet's distance from the sun?
As a general rule, the surface temp will go down and the length of the planet's "year" will increase the farther it is from the sun. There are exceptions, but that is the general rule.
What is the length of one year on planet mars?
The length of year on Mars is 686.98 Earth days or 1.88 Earth years.
What causes the length of a year on a planet?
The length of a year, for any planet, is the amount of time that it takes for that planet to complete one orbit of the sun. That, in turn, depends only upon the distance of that planet from the sun. The closer the planet is to the sun, the shorter the year. The farther the planet is from the sun, the longer the year. It takes a certain amount of orbital speed to counteract the gravitational attraction of the sun. And similarly, if a planet is moving faster in its orbit, there will be correspondingly more centrifugal force, causing the planet to move farther from the sun. Orbital mechanics makes it all work out.
