The sun would look much smaller than it does from Earth but still bright.
The sun would look much smaller.
From the distance of Pluto, the Sun would look like a very bright star.
From Pluto, the sun would look like a tiny insignificant speck.
It would be no brighter than some planets as seen from Earth : brighter than the other stars but not much larger. Since Pluto is so far away from the sun (at a average distance of 3,670,050,000 miles), the sun would look much dimmer and smaller that it does from here on Earth. From Pluto, the sun would look like a very bright star and would light up Pluto during the day about as much as the full moon lights up Earth at night.
No. Let's take Earth as a good example to start with. Let's say you look at the force of gravity of Pluto if it were twice as far from the Sun as Earth is. The force of gravity would be 2x2 = 4 times weaker. Move Pluto away from Sun twice that distance, and the force of gravity would be another 4 times weaker. Move Pluto away from the Sun another 2 times its previous distance, and the force of gravity between it and the Sun would be yet another 4 times weaker. And so on, until you reach a point in space where Pluto is really, actually positioned.
If you were standing on Pluto, the Sun might be overhead or near the horizon, depending on the time of day and your location.Note: On Pluto the Sun would appear to be a very very bright star, but nothing more.

No, Pluto was never a Sun.

Pluto is about 5,913 million km from the sun (on average). Earth is about 150 million km from the sun. Pluto is about 5,763 million km from Earth, so Pluto is about the same distance from our moon.
Pluto always orbits the sun.
If you still consider Pluto to be a planet then Pluto would be the slowest to orbit the sun. If you don't believe Pluto is a planet anymore then Neptune would be the slowest planet to orbit our sun.
