Within the solar system, the mass of the orbiting bodies ... whether planets,
asteroids, comets etc. ... has no effect on the dimensions of their orbits.

What is the relative size and mass of jupiter?
The size of Jupiter is a diameter of 143,000 kilometers at its equator. Its mass is 318 times the Earth's mass.
The size of a planet's orbit is determined by?
The mass of the planet, the mass of the sun and the distance between the two.
What is the size of the betelgeuse?
Betelgeuse boasts the diameter greater than the orbit of Jupiter. It has a mass of around 20 times the mass of the Sun, and its luminosity is almost 200,000 times greater than the Sun. So really, it is one of the biggest and brightest stars ever observed.
What is Jupiter's size and mass compared to Earth?
Jupiter has about 300 times the mass of Earth and about ten times Earth's radius. Estimate the size of g on the surface of Jupiter
How did distance from the sun affect the size and composition of the planet?
As for size, that's still an open question, but the fact that Earth is a rocky plant rather than a gas giant is the result of the sun blowing away the light gases hydrogen and helium (out past the orbit of Jupiter).

Dose it take Neptune so long to orbit around the sun because of its size?
Not the size of the mass, It's the Miles in the orbit!
The size of a planet's orbit is determined by?
The mass of the planet, the mass of the sun and the distance between the two.
Does size affect gravity's strength?
Size does not but mass does.
If Jupiter explodes will it turn into a black hole?
Jupiter could potentially orbit a black hole the size of Mars - one that size would have an immense(!) gravitational pull and would be significantly more massive than Jupiter. By comparison, the Sun's Schwarzschild radius is only about 3 km - and Mars has a radius around 3,400 km - so a black hole of that size would be in excess of a thousand times the mass of the Sun.
What is a major significant difference between the sun and Jupiter?
The difference in mass

Is Alioths star red or blue?
Neither. Epsilon Ursae Majoris (Alioth) is a white star, although it's spectrum is odd, implying that it has a mass about fifteen times the size of Jupiter orbiting it in a highly eccentric orbit.
Why do you say electrons most affect an atom's size while protons and neutrons most affect an atom's mass?
because the electron are on the out side and orbit around the nucleus (aka protons and neutrons) and take up the space
How slow do planets orbit?
It depends on their size, mass, distance and strength of gravity.
