Each planet orbits the Sun in what is referred to as their year. Because they are moving a different speeds and are at different distances, the length of time will vary. The Earth makes one revolution in what we call a year (365.25 days).
Mercury is the shortest, taking a little under 88 Earth days to make a revolution.
Neptune is the longest taking almost 165 Earth Years to make a revolution.
The others, in terms of Earth years:
Venus - 0.61 years (224.7 days)
Mars - 1.88 years (687 days)
Jupiter - 11.86 years (4332.6 days)
Saturn - 29.46 years (10759.2 days)
Uranus - 84.32 years (30799 days)
The planet Earth, on which we live, takes one year to orbit the sun.
it takes 365 1/4 day for the earth to orbit the sun that's why every four years there is a February 29th!
One Earth year.
A revolution is how long a planet takes to orbit the sun.
a year is determined on how long the planet takes to orbit the sun. When calculating the year of a planet we use earth days. __________________ Yes, distance counts. The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes that planet to complete one full orbit.
The length of time it takes for a planet to orbit the sun is based on its distance from the sun, not its mass. The farther a planet is from the sun, the larger its orbital path, and the longer it takes to complete an orbit.
plants don't orbit the sun... :
Do you mean how long does it take Mercury to orbit the sun ? 87.969 days
Mercury's orbit of the sun takes 87.969 days.
365.25 days
It takes 687 days for the planet mars to orbit the sun.
How many days does it take Saturn the planet to orbit the sun? How many days does it take Saturn the planet to orbit the sun?
365.25 days (approx.)
10000 miles away from earth
309 years
Neptune. Because it was the farthest planet from the sun. So its orbit's length is long.
The dwarf planet 1 Ceres orbits around the Sun once in 4.6 years.
One Earth year.
365 days=1 year
