From Kepler's 3rd law the length of the year at that distance would be 3**(1.5) years, in other words 5.196 years, calculated by taking the square-root of 3-cubed.

Why is AU 92955887.6 miles long?
Because that length is the amount of miles from the Sun to the Earth.
How long does it take a comet to orbit the sun with an distance of 1 AU?
The same as the Earth
Would the Earth's period of revolution about the sun be shorter than 1 year if it was closer to the sun than 1 au?
If it still revolved the same speed Yes.
What is the au of Jupiter?
It ranges from 5.458104 AU to 5.458104 AU for an average of 5.204267 AU.
How far from the sun is earth in AU and miles?
1 AU, or astronomical unit, is the distance between the earth and sun, making earth 1 AU away from the sun. That is about 93 million miles
How far are AU's?
AU stands for Astronomical Unit. The Earth is 1 AU away from the sun. Therefore, 1 AU is approximately 93 million miles long.
How long would it take to travel to Saturn from earth at the speed of light?
Working with very, very round numbers . . .-- The Earth's average distance from the sun is 1 AU.-- Saturn's average distance from the sun is 9 AU.-- The closest together that Earth and Saturn can ever be is 8 AU = 66.5 minutes at light speed.-- The farthest apart that Earth and Saturn can ever be is 10 AU = 83.2 minutes at light speed.
Why do you think the AU is not used to measure distance on earth?
An AU is much larger than any distance on Earth. Earth's equatorial circumference is about 0.00027 . So measuring distances on Earth in AU would be like measuring the sizes of small animals in miles.
How far is earth from the sun AU?
The Earth is one AU from the Sun.
How many AU's from the planets to the sun?
Mercury--Sun= AU Venus--Sun= AU Earth--Sun=1 AU Mars--Sun= AU Jupiter--Sun= AU Saturn--Sun= AU Uranus--Sun= AU Neptune--Sun= AU Pluto--Sun= AU
What Planet that is one AU from the sun?
The Earth. Why would they chose another?
How far is mercury from earth in AU?
Mercury is 0.5167 AU from Earth. AU stands for astronomical unit. Mercury is 48,000,000 miles from Earth at its closest approach.
Why is AU 92955887.6 miles long?
Because that length is the amount of miles from the Sun to the Earth.
How long does it take a comet to orbit the sun with an distance of 1 AU?
The same as the Earth
1.A certain spacecraft is 3.3 AU (Astronomical Units) from Earth. How long in seconds does it take for a signal to reach the Earth after it is transmitted from the spacecraft Hint An AU is about 149.9?
One AU, the distance from the Earth to the Sun, is 500 light-seconds. A signal to a spacecraft at a distance of 3.3 AU would take 500 x 3.3 = 1,650 seconds, or 27.5 minutes.
How far in au is earth from the sun?
Good question. The answer is one. The term AU, or astronomical unit was defined as the distance from the Earth to the sun. It is 93 million miles and is used in solar system distances. The term light year is used for far greater distances, but the AU is still given.
What is an object at a distance of 68 AU from the Earth?
All objects orbiting the Sun do so in an elliptical orbit. Therefore sometimes they are further away while at others they are closer.To be 68 AU from the Earth you would need to know the position of the Earth relative to the said object as the Earth could be on the other side of the Sun.The closest objects to 68 AU from the Sun would be Eris or 2007 OR10.Eris: Aphelion 97.56 AU Perihelion 37.77 AU Semi major axis (Average) 67.67 AU2007 OR10: Aphelion 100.79 AU Perihelion 33.62 AU Semi major axis (Average) 67.21 AU
