The farther away from the sun the planet is, the more space it has to cover. Therefore, the planets distance from the sun whereas, if i am half the distance from Earth/Sun, that planet will get more energy. But if I am twice the distance from Earth/Sun, I will receive less energy.

What two factors affect a planets revolution?
Two factors that affect a planets revolution are distance from the sun and size.
How does a planets distance from the sun affect the planets orbit speed?
the closer you are to the sun it affects the planets speed cause of the suns gravitational pull
How does the planets distance from the sun affect the length of a day?
Not at all. The planet's daily rotation is independent of its distance from the Sun.
How does the distance affect the time it takes the earth and the other planets to go around the sun?
it can affect the time bec. when the planet is near the sun it will rotates very fast than the other far planets....
Distance from earth the closest to farthest planets?
Neptune is the remotest of the eight planets, and its distance is 30 astronomical units, which means its distance from the Sun is 30 times the Earth's distance from the Sun.
How does a planets distance from the sun affect its period of revolution?

How does the distance of the sun affect the velocity of a planet?
From Kepler's laws it can be shown that the orbital speeds of the planets are proportional to the inverse square root of their distances from the Sun. Thus a planets at four times the distance would travel at half the speed.
Does a planet's distance from the sun affect it's density?
Very generally, the outer four planets are less dense than the four inner rocky planets, but it's more to do with planet type rather than their distance from the sun.
What affect does the sun have on one of your planets?
the affect is 90 between two planets
Do planets collide when the distance of the planets from the sun change?
The distance of the planets from the sun does not change because of the gravity surrounding each planet is pulling them into continuous orbit.
Distance from earth the closest to farthest planets?
Neptune is the remotest of the eight planets, and its distance is 30 astronomical units, which means its distance from the Sun is 30 times the Earth's distance from the Sun.
What do the length of the planets year and its distance from the sun have in common?
There is a relationship between the planets distance from the sun and the time taken for one orbit (planets year), described in Keplers third law. The square root of the time taken to orbit the sun is proportional to the cube of the average distance between the sun.
How does the distance between the inner planets differ from the distance between the outer planets?
As the names suggest, the inner planets are closer to the Sun than the outer planets.
