The sun's so large that its gravitational pull is very strong, but just strong enough to hold the planets in place. So the relationship is its gravitational pull.

Where are the outer planets located in relationship to the sun?

They follow orbital paths which, like those of the inner planets, are centered on the sun, but the outer planets, without exception, are farther from the sun than any of the inner planets is.

there is no true relationship between distance from the sun and orbit time as some planets go revolves at a different velocity.

What is the relationship between the period of revolution and distance from the sun?

The period of revolution of a planet (time taken to complete one orbit around the sun) is directly proportional to its average distance from the sun. This relationship is described by Kepler's third law of planetary motion. Planets that are farther from the sun take longer to complete an orbit compared to planets that are closer to the sun.

How does the distance from the sun effect planets orbit?

In general, the planets that are farther from the Sun move slower, and take longer to go around the Sun. The quantitative relationship (i.e., exactly how much slower) is expressed by Kepler's Third Law.


Do the planets closest to the sun travel slowest in their orbits?

No, the closer a planet is to the sun, the faster it orbits.


What is the relationship between a planets distance from the sun and distance between planets?

If two planets are in orbits with radii of R1 and R2, the distance between them varies from R2-R1 to R2+R1.


What did Kepler discover about the distance of the planets from the sun and the length of their orbits?

Keplar showed that there is a relationship between the planets distance from the sun and the time taken for one orbit (planets year). This is described in Keplars third law; the square root of the time taken to orbit the sun is proportional to the cube of the average distance between the sun.
