∙ 14y agoPluto has a longer orbit because it is much further from the Sun than Venus and the Sun's gravitational pull is much weaker.

Does Mercury or Venus take longer to orbit the sun?
Venus, farther from the Sun than Mercury, takes longer to orbit. the Sun.
What is the size and shape for Venus?
If you mean the shape of the orbit, it's an ellipse.
Is Pluto an orbit?
Answer: No, Pluto is not an orbit. Pluto is in an orbit: a 2:3 resonance orbit with Neptune.No, Pluto is a dwarf planet.
Is Pluto's orbit shorter then Saturn's?
Pluto orbits the sun, as does Saturn, but Saturn is closer to the sun than Pluto is, so Pluto has much further to go to orbit the sun. Pluto's orbit is longer than Saturn's.
What planet takes about 270 years to orbit?
Although it is no longer regarded as a planet, Pluto is the closest to that, taking about 248 years to orbit the Sun.
Which Planet has the least eccentric orbit?
The least eccentric orbit is Venus The most eccentric orbit is Pluto (aside from Pluto, Mercury)
How is Pluto's orbit different from other planets orbits?
Pluto's orbit is longer and slower than other planets.
Does Mercury or Venus take longer to orbit the sun?
Venus, farther from the Sun than Mercury, takes longer to orbit. the Sun.
Which plant is farthest from earth?
Planet furthest from earth? Neptune, since Pluto is no longer considered a planet.But, if you do consider Pluto a planet, then normally, the furthest planet from Earth is Pluto, but sometimes it is Neptune. (Pluto's orbit crosses Neptune's).
What is the size and shape for Venus?
If you mean the shape of the orbit, it's an ellipse.
How was it decided Pluto was no longer a planet?
It's because Pluto is not the dominant object in the neighbourhood of its orbit.
How many trips have people taken to Pluto?
Zero trips pluto is a gass ball that orbits neptune actually pluto is no longer in orbit and is no longer a planet
Which of these planets would have the shortest year venus-243 days pluto-4 days or mercury-59 days?
Pluto is no longer a planet A year is the measurement of an orbit of the sun, not a rotation on it's axis. What you have listed is the object's 'day' Pluto rotates on it's axis once every 6 days, 9 hours venus: once every 243 days mercury: once 59 days An orbit of the Sun (a year): Mercury: 87 days Venus: 224 days Pluto: 248 Years 87 days < 224 days < 248 YEARS umm, Mercury. Note that Venus' day is longer than it's year - no wonder the place is an oven!
What planet takes the longer time to orbit the sun?
Pluto
What is the order of Pluto?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Ceres, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Makemake, Haumea, and Eris. That makes Pluto number 10 when we include dwarf planets out from the sun. Ironic since at the time of its discovery it was known as "planet X".
Is Pluto an orbit?
Answer: No, Pluto is not an orbit. Pluto is in an orbit: a 2:3 resonance orbit with Neptune.No, Pluto is a dwarf planet.
Why was Pluto a no longer planet?
That's because it is not the dominant object in the neighbourhood of its orbit.
