When exploring space, astronomers use astronomical units, (AU) to measure the distance from one object to another. Since every distance from one object in our solar system to another object in our solar system, the distance of a planet from the sun would be measured in astronomical units
What else can I help you with?
Do planets collide when the distance of the planets from the sun change?
The distance of the planets from the sun does not change because of the gravity surrounding each planet is pulling them into continuous orbit.
What are the rocky planets in order of their distance from the sun?
In order of their distance from the sun, the rocky planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
How does the sun have gravity?
The sun has all the gravity to keep the planets a certain distance from the sun.
What is the average distance of the planets from the sun?
10000000023 km
What is the order of the planets of increasing distance from the sun?
uranus
A planets maximum distance from the sun is the what of its orbit?
The apogee.
How does the planets distance from the sun affect the length of a day?
Not at all. The planet's daily rotation is independent of its distance from the Sun.
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.
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 are the four further planets from the sun in distance order?
The four furthest planets from the sun, in order of distance, are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
Is it true that the closer the planets are to the sun then the less gravity the planets have?
No. The surface gravity of a planet depends on its size and mass, not its distance from the sun.
What is the relationship between the distance of the planets from the sun and the time it takes to revolve around the sun?
there is no true relationship between distance from the sun and orbit time as some planets go revolves at a different velocity.
