What planet is about 5 AU from the sun?

Jupiter is roughly 5.2 AU from the sun.


Will the gas giants loose their atmospheres when the sun becomes a red giant?

We can't be sure yet, but probably not. Jupiter, the closest gas giant planet, is 5 AU away from the Sun, and the others are considerably farther away; the Sun is unlikely to become so large as to blow away the atmospheres of these very massive planets.


How does the distance of the earth from the sun compare to the distance of the gas giant from the sun?

Jupiter is 5 times as far away from the Sun as Earth, Saturn is 10 times as far.


How does the distances of earth from Sun compare to the distance of the gas giants from the sun?

The closest gas giant, Jupiter, is about 5 AU from the Sun - that is, 5 times the distance from Sun to Earth. The other gas giants are farther away.


Will Earth be destroyed eventually?

Yes it is likely that the planet will be consumed by our Sun when the Sun moves into its red giant phase in about 5 thousand million years time.


When will the Earth stop spinning?

How far is Jupiter from the sun that orbits?

About 5 AU.


Will the sun turn into a planet or was the sun a planet?

No. The Sun was never a planet, and the Sun will never turn into a planet. In about 5 billion years, the Sun will expand into a red giant star. It will last that way for another billion or so years, and then slowly shrink down into a brown dwarf star.


An object has been located orbiting the sun at a distance from the sun of 65 AU what is the approximate orbital period of this object?

The approximate orbital period of an object at a distance of 65 AU from the sun would be around 177 years. This corresponds to Kepler's third law of planetary motion, which relates the orbital period of a planet to its distance from the sun.


What is the distance from of the mars to the sun in AU?

It varies with each planet's position in its orbit. Mars is farther out from the Sun, and orbits more slowly than the Earth does. At the "conjunction", when the two planets are closest together, they are about .5 AU apart. But 8 months later, when Earth has raced ahead and is now on the opposite side of the Sun from Mars, the distance is about 1.5 AU.


Will the sun turn into a red giant soon?

No. The sun will become a red giant in about 5 billion years.
