The outer planets take longer.
The outer planets, such as Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, move slower in their orbits because they are farther away from the Sun. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, the farther a planet is from the Sun, the longer it takes to complete one orbit. Therefore, the slower orbital speed of the outer planets compared to the inner planets, like Earth and Mars, is a consequence of their larger orbital paths.
The larger the radius of your orbit from a common center, the farther the distance you would be traveling around that object as is the case with planets farther from the sun. Substantially, planets have lower masses than the sun, thereby weaker gravitational interaction, lower space velocity, which makes them "creep" slower in their orbits. If you place a star, say the same mass as the Sun in the orbit of Neptune, the time it takes for the two stars to complete one revolution around each other would be shorter.

When don't they? If a planet is in orbit around a star, it is in continual orbit. Orbital periods (the lengths of time it takes different planets to complete one orbit) are different from planet to planet, and are related to the distances between the planets and their stars.
Different planets have different times to orbit the Sun. Mercury takes 88 days. Uranus takes 84 Earth years.
Because gravity is stronger as it gets closer to the planet it is orbiting. and orbits are caused by the gravity of the planit they are rotating.
Mars takes the longest of the inner planets.
The rotational period of the inner planets is much faster than the rotational period of the outer planets. The rotation of some planets takes years to complete.
All outer planets have a gaseous atmosphere and are larger than planets the inner planets it also takes them longer to rotate the sun they are typically colder and have more moons.
No, it is a dwarf planet. Uh.....the question was about Pluto's position in the solar system, not Pluto's size. Pluto was thought to be the ninth planet when discovered in the 1930's, but we now know that Pluto is not a planet. When it was still considered a planet, it was one of the outer planets, about as far as you can get. Mercury, Venus, Terra (earth), and Mars are the inner planets; those with orbits between the Belt and Sol (the asteroid belt and the sun).
The outer planets, such as Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, move slower in their orbits because they are farther away from the Sun. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, the farther a planet is from the Sun, the longer it takes to complete one orbit. Therefore, the slower orbital speed of the outer planets compared to the inner planets, like Earth and Mars, is a consequence of their larger orbital paths.
Since the gravitational effect of the Sun decreases with distance from it, the planets farther from the Sun do not have to move as rapidly to remain in orbit. (In fact, the speed is what establishes the orbit, not the other way around.) So the outer planets, in addition to having much farther to travel in their orbits, are also moving more slowly. This combination means that outer planets take very much longer to orbit the Sun than do the inner planets such as Earth. By comparison, the length of time it takes (in Earth years) for each of the outer planets to make one complete revolution around the Sun: Jupiter - 11.9 Earth years Saturn - 29.5 Earth years Uranus - 84 Earth years Neptune - 165 Earth years
The inner planets are having few or no moons at all, and the planet are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. And the puter planets are part of the sun mass and have no solid surface, they are also called the gas giants, and the planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. ----------------------------------------------------------ps. hi:) It's thought that during the solar system's formation, when the planets were still proto-planets, the sun "switched on" and the solar wind blew away the lighter, gaseous component of the inner planets, leaving the heavier core. The outer gas planets are too far away to have this happen.
The path a planet takes is called an orbit.The planets are kept in orbit by the gravitational pull of the star (in our case the Sun) they orbit.

because the farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes to make one orbit
