Do small planets orbit slowly?
It dose not matter how small the planet is, what makes them orbit slower is how far away the planet is from the sun.
Why do the planets look so small from Earth?
because the further you get away from earth it to gets smaller .... and its the same concept from earth.... the farther you are from the planets the smaller they appear.
Do planets get colder when there away from the sun?
Yes planets get colder when further away from the Sun.
Why did they take away Pluto's planet status?
it was so small it wasnt exactly a planet it was a dwarf planet
How do planets change orbital speed change?
Planets with elliptical orbits are affected by the difference in the strength of the Sun's gravity as they move closer to, or farther away from, the Sun. The only other major effect on planets are the gravity of other planets, notably Jupiter and Neptune. Except for Mars, Ceres, Pluto, and trans-Neptunian planets, the effect is extremely small -- it has resulted in stable orbital resonances between several small outer planets and the planet Neptune.
How are planets closest to the sun different from the planets that are farther away?
The planets that are closest to the sun get more heat than the ones more farther away. The four inner planets are dense and rocky. The four other planets have small solid cores surrounded by vast atmospheres. The four inner planets have one significant satellite among them (the moon), while each of the outer planets has many satellites. The four inner planets are small, while the outer planets are massive.

How many planets away from the earth is the moon?
No planets away.

Are planets separated by small distances?
A: To our solar system the distance is great But compared the the universe it is inches away
What planet do most known extrasolar planets least resemble?
We tend to see the large planets farthest away from their stars. So it is unlikely we will find any small planets close to their star similar to Mercury.

Yes planets get colder when further away from the Sun.
Is Uranus the closest to the sun?
Closer than the other planets in our Solar System? No - only Neptune is farther away, the other planets are closer to the SuUn than Uranus.Closer than the other planets in our Solar System?

How are outer planets different from smaller planets?
They are bigger because the Outer Planets had less gas and dust taken away from them when the solar system was forming. The Inner planets were closer to the sun, so the sun took more gas and dust away from those bodies, but didn't take away from the Outer bodies.
