Which planets have a greater period than one earth year those closer to the sun than to the earth or those farther from the sun than from the earth?
Planets farther from the sun than Earth have greater periods than one Earth year. For example, Neptune and Uranus are further from the Sun than Earth and have orbital periods longer than one Earth year.
Why do some plants have longer years than earth?
A year for a planet is the time it takes for that planet to orbit the sun. Some planets take longer to orbit the sun because they are farther away from the sun than Earth, so those planets have a farther distance to cover to orbit the sun once than the Earth does.
What causes Earth's year to be shorter than Jupiter's year?
Earth's year is shorter than Jupiter's year because Earth is closer to the sun and therefore orbits it faster. Jupiter's year is longer because it is farther from the sun, so it takes more time to complete one orbit.
Is a year on mars longer or shorter on earth?
Mars orbits farther from the sun,tthan Earth does, meand its orbital circumference is longer. Additionally, the farther out an orbiting object is, the slower it travels. So, to complete one orbit, Mars has to travel farther than Earth does and at a slower speed.
Over millions of years is the Earth getting closer to the Sun or farther away from the Sun?
The Earth is getting very, very slightly farther away from the Sun over time, due to tidal forces.
How would earth's year be different if it were father from the sun?
If Earth were farther from the sun, its year would be longer because it would take more time for the planet to complete one orbit. This would result in longer seasons and potentially colder temperatures overall.
How long it would take a spacecraft to orbit the sun?
If its orbit is at the same distance as Earth's orbit, it will take a year, just like Earth. Closer to the Sun it will take less time; farther from the Sun it will take more time - just like any planet. The time for a specific distance can be calculated using Kepler's Third Law.
Is the Earth farther from the sun in June?
No The Sun Is CLOSER To The Earth In June.
Why do shadow lengths change thoughout the year?
because the earth is "tilted" 23.5 degrees. So, when earth rotates around the sun, it is either tilted closer, or farther away from the sun. For example, in summer, earth is titled towards the sun, making shadows short. But in winter, earth is tilted farther from the sun. So shadows are longer. That is why shadows are longer or shorter during the year.
How does the year of a planet closer to the sun compare with one that is farther away?
A planet closer to the Sun has a shorter orbital period, meaning it completes its year in less time compared to a planet that is farther away. This is due to the stronger gravitational pull from the Sun, which causes closer planets to travel faster in their orbits. For example, Mercury, the closest planet, takes about 88 Earth days to orbit the Sun, while Neptune, being much farther away, takes about 165 Earth years. Thus, the distance from the Sun significantly affects the length of a planet's year.
When did people first orbit the sun?
As long as mankind has been on Earth, which orbits the Sun one complete time each year.
Is the earth farther from the sun when it is winter in the northern hemisphere?
Just the opposite. The earth reaches its closest point to the sun around January 2 or 3 every year.
