How big is Pluto compared to other planets?

Plutos mean diameter is around 2296 km, while Mercury's mean diameter (the smallest planet) is 4878km. Even our moon is larger than Pluto, the moon mean diameter is 3474km. So it is very small compared with the 8 major planets.

What determines the length of the planets year?

The eight planets are in order in their various places. If a planet is closer to the Sun, it will have a shorter orbit and therefore will take less time to complete its orbit. If a planet is farther away from the Sun, it will have a longer orbit and will take more time to complete its orbit. For example, Earth, the third planet from the Sun and takes just a year to revolutionize it, but since Uranus, the seventh planet, is farther away from the Sun, it will take 81 years to complete its orbit.
