The order of the planets closest to the sun to furthest away gives you the order of planets starting with the shortest orbit time to the longest orbit time. This is due to Kepler's third law, which states that the orbit time increases as the distance from the sun increases. Mercury is the closest planet, therefore it has the shortest orbit time. Next is Venus, then Earth, then Mars, then Jupiter, then Saturn, then Uranus, and finally Neptune, because it is the farthest away from the sun.

Planets that are farther from the sun have longer orbital periods due to the influence of gravity. The gravitational force between the sun and a planet decreases with distance, so planets farther out experience weaker gravitational pulls, resulting in slower orbital speeds. This explains why outer planets like Neptune have longer orbital periods compared to inner planets like Mercury.
Mars takes the longest of the inner planets.
The inner planets, also known as terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars), are smaller, rockier, and have solid surfaces. The outer planets, also called gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune), are larger, primarily made of gas, and have no solid surface. Both sets of planets orbit the Sun, but inner planets are closer to the Sun and have shorter orbital periods, while outer planets are farther away and have longer orbital periods.
The time it takes for a planet to orbit the sun is known as its orbital period. The order of planets from shortest to longest orbital period is: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Mercury has the shortest orbital period of about 88 Earth days, while Neptune has the longest orbital period of about 165 Earth years.
They are farther away and have larger orbital periods.

(The year is proportional to the distance to the power 1.5) In our solar system, Mercury has the shortest year. Neptune has the longest.
All 8 planets, including dwarf planet Pluto, orbit the Sun. As their distance from the Sun increases, the time it takes for the planet to complete one revolution around the Sun increases as well.

Inner planets are typically rocky, smaller in size, have shorter orbital periods, and lack rings. Outer planets are gaseous or icy, larger in size, have longer orbital periods, and possess rings and many moons. Additionally, inner planets are closer to the Sun, while outer planets are farther away.
Neptune takes the longest time to orbit the Sun, with an orbital period of about 165 years.
the smallest planets moon probably because it has the least amount of way to go
Planets that are farther from the sun have longer orbital periods due to the influence of gravity. The gravitational force between the sun and a planet decreases with distance, so planets farther out experience weaker gravitational pulls, resulting in slower orbital speeds. This explains why outer planets like Neptune have longer orbital periods compared to inner planets like Mercury.
As it increases, the orbital speed increases, and the period (time to complete an orbit) decreases, which is why Mercury has the shortest year, and Neptune the slowest orbital speed.
