What planet takes the longer time to orbit the sun?
Pluto
How are the length of a planet year and planet distance from the sun?
A planet year is defined as the time it takes a planet to make one complete revolution in its orbit around the sun. The farther away from the sun a planet is, the larger its orbit. The larger its orbit, the longer (more days) it takes to go around the sun. Thus, the farther away a planet is from the sun, the longer its year will be.
Do more massive planets take longer to orbit the sun?
The length of time it takes for a planet to orbit the sun is based on its distance from the sun, not its mass. The farther a planet is from the sun, the larger its orbital path, and the longer it takes to complete an orbit.
Why do planets have different numbers of days in their years?
Well, basically different planets take longer to orbit the Sun. For example, Jupiter takes longer to orbit than earth, so Jupiter has a longer year. On Venus, a day lasts longer than a year as it takes longer to spin on its axis that to orbit the sun.
What planet takes longer for one spin than for one orbit around the sun?
Venus has a rotation (spin) time of 243 Earth days, and a revolution (orbit) time of 224.7 Earth days, making it the planet with longer days than years.
Does the distance from the sun affect how long a year is on that planet?
a year is determined on how long the planet takes to orbit the sun. When calculating the year of a planet we use earth days. __________________ Yes, distance counts. The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes that planet to complete one full orbit.
What is the difference between a day a month and a year in terms of astronomy?
In astronomy, a day is the time it takes for a planet to rotate once on its axis. A month is the time it takes for the moon to orbit around a planet. A year is the time it takes for a planet to orbit around its star.
How does the distance affect the time it takes a planet to orbit?
Yes. The grater the distance, the longer an object takes to orbit.
Why is each planets year different?
Each planet's year is determined by its orbital period, which is the time it takes to complete one orbit around the Sun. The further a planet is from the Sun, the longer its orbital period, resulting in a longer year. This is due to the gravitational force of the Sun, which influences the speed and distance at which each planet orbits.
What is the time it takes a planet to orbit the sun?
Depends on which planet/sun!Neptune!!
Which planet takes the shortest time to orbit the earth?
No planet orbits Earth.
What planet takes 248 Earth years to orbit the sun one time?
Pluto takes 248.09 Earth years to orbit the Sun once. However, please note that Pluto is no longer classified as a planet (like Earth, Mars, Jupiter etc.), it is now a 'dwarf planet'.
