Astronomers refer to a planet's orbital period as its year. On that basis Mars does have a longer year than Earth.

Which is longer one year on mars on year on earth?
Mars. The further out from the sun, the longer a planet takes to revolve round the sun. For example, Pluto's orbit takes over 200 (Earth) years.
How would the length of a year on mars compare with that on earth and Why?
It would be longer because Mars is further away from the sun and orbits slower than the Earth; therefore will take longer to complete a full revolution.
Why is mar 's year longer than earth years?
Because Mars is 150,000,000 million kilometre from Earth and it takes Mars time revolve around the Sun
Is the time on mars different then the time on earth?
If you mean unit of time, then yes. A second on Earth is the same as a second on Mars, as is a minute, or an hour. Mars' length of day, however is slightly longer than an average Earth day because it rotates slightly slower than the Earth. A Martian year is also longer than a year on Earth because its orbit around the Sun is longer. One orbit around the Sun for Mars takes a little less than two Earth years.
Which body has a longer year than earth?
Mars, because it travels farther to complete its orbit,
How long does a year lasts on Mars?
A day on Mars (the time it takes to rotate on its axis) is 24.62 hours, just slightly longer than a day on Earth.A year on Mars (the time it takes to go around the Sun) is 686.97 days, almost 2 of our Earth years.for more information, See other related questions, e.g. how long is a day on mars?=]
Why does a year on mars take longer than a year on earth?
A 'year' is the time it takes for a planet to orbit the sun. In the case of earth, this is 365 and 1 quarter days. That is why a year lasts for 365 days and every fourth year ( a leap year) we add up all the odd quarter-days to make an extra day which we put into February - as February 29th. Mars, however, takes 687 (to the nearest day) earth days to go round the sun, so a Martian year is 687 days long - or 1.88 earth years.
Does Mars travel faster then Earth?
NO mars has longer years so it has longer orbit and traveling
