Is mars faster are slower than earth when you orbit around the sun?
Mars takes longer to make one orbit of the sun. Its slower, and it also has further to go. Planets orbiting speeds get slower the further you go out.
Why Mars take so long to orbit the Sun than Mercury?
Mars takes longer to orbit Sun than Mercury because it is farther away from the sun, so it travels a longer distance.
What two planets are next to the earth?
Earth is the next planet to orbit inside Mars, while Jupiter is the next planet to orbit outside Mars orbit. Mars' orbit is closer to Venus (and Mercurys') orbit than it is to Jupiters though.
What are the two reasons why Mars takes so long to orbit the Sun than Mercury?
mars is farther away from the sun
Which planets take less than a year 2 orbit the sun?
Mercury and Venus take less time to orbit the Sun than the Earth does. ummm...if you need 5 then...earth, venus, mercury, mars and jupiter
What 5 planets that take less than 29 years to orbit the sun?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars and Jupiter.
Is earth orbit smaller than mars orbit?
Yes. Earth is closer to the Sun than Mars, so it will have a smaller orbit.
Does mars rotate faster than the earth?
Yes, It does. Considering Newtonian physics and assuming circular orbit for simple calculations, this is because in order to equalize gravitational pull of Sun which is higher at Mars orbit, the centrifugal force must be adequately higher(and it rises proportionally to square of velocity).
Is the moon smaller than mercury or mars?
mars is obviously larger than our moon not Mercury
What planet is first Mars or Mercury?
Mercury is closer to the sun than mars
What is the difference between mercury and mars?
Mercury is smaller than Mars. While Mars has two moons orbiting it, Mercury has none. Mercury has a hotter surface temperature than Mars due to the fact that it is closer to the Sun.
What is the planet before Pluto?
Earth is between Venus and Mars. Venus is closer to the sun than Earth, and Mars is farther away. The order is: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.
