If a planet has less gravity will it take longer to revolve around the sun?
No, it is the sun's gravity that affects the planets revolutions. The planet's distance from the sun is also very important in the time it takes to revolve around the sun.
Which planet is quickest going round the sun?
Mercury - its the closest to sun so takes it less for one complete revolution
Which planet completes its journey around the sun first?
the planet which completes its journey first is mercury i think
Does it take 1 year for planets to go round the sun?
This would depend on the planet, earth takes a year to go round the sun but that is because we named the time it takes for us to go round the sun a "year". The closer to the sun a planet is the less time it takes to circle it.
Which planet takes the least time to revolve around the sun?
mercury, it only takes 88 days. The closer the planet is to the parent star (sun in our case) the less time it takes to complete one orbit. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun and the planet to take the shortest time to orbit it.
What is a definition of a day?
A period of twenty-four hours, the time it takes for the earth to revolve completely once. In the context of other planets, a day may be more or less depending on the planet's rate of rotation.
What would cause a planet to have a longer year than Earth?
I think the longer it takes to rotate around the sun. If you're farter from the sun, in most cases it will take longer to revolve aroungd it once. If you are closer to the sun it will take less time to revolve around the sun. it might even have something to do with gravatational pull and the mass of the planet.
Planets that are smallest to the sun revolve at a faster speed?
Yes, planets that are closer to the Sun, like Mercury and Venus, revolve at faster orbital speeds due to stronger gravitational attraction from the Sun. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, the closer a planet is to the Sun, the shorter its orbital period, meaning it takes less time to complete one orbit. This is why Mercury, the smallest and closest planet to the Sun, has the highest orbital speed.
How is the moon different from a planet?
the moons orbit the planet but the planets orbit the sunMoons revolve round planets. Planets revolve round suns.___________AlternateThe truth is that planets orbit round their moons, or more precisely a planet and its moon(s) orbit around their barycenter, the center of gravity of the planet-moon system. This is true for the earth, but this orbital motion of earth is less noticeable than the orbital motion of the smaller moon. I think the real difference between planets and their moons is relative size.
How long does it take lo to orbit Jupiter?
It takes Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, around 3.5 Earth days to orbit Jupiter once. Ganymede, the largest moon of Jupiter, takes about 7 Earth days to complete one orbit around the planet.
Why does mercury take less time to revolve around the sun than earth does?
Because Mercury is much heaveyer than the earth so it takes more time to rotatebecause of its weight
What planet travels around the Sun in less time than it takes the Earth to make one complete relouvtion?
Mercury
