Well friend, the Sun and Pluto are quite a distance apart. Imagine a long, meandering trail filled with all kinds of stunning scenery. If you were to walk this distance, you'd need to bring along a whole lot of snacks and cozy socks! Remember, the universe is a beautiful place full of wonder and surprises.

The nearest distance from Pluto to Earth is?

The nearest distance between Pluto and Earth is about 2.66 billion miles (4.28 billion kilometers) when they are on the same side of the Sun. However, this distance varies as both planets orbit the Sun in elliptical paths.


How far is venus from Pluto?

The average distance between Venus and Pluto is about 4.9 billion kilometers or 3.1 billion miles. The distance can vary depending on their positions in their respective orbits around the Sun.


What would happen to the magnitude of the gravitational force between the sun and Earth if Earth was placed in Pluto's orbit?

The magnitude of the gravitational force between the sun and Earth would decrease if Earth was placed in Pluto's orbit. This is because the force of gravity between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them, so as Earth moved farther away from the sun (as in Pluto's orbit), the gravitational force would weaken.


Why is the force of gravity on Pluto from the Sun the weakest?

-- Among the bodies that used to be the 9 planets, Pluto is the one with the smallest mass. -- Plus it's the one farthest from the sun. These two parameters ... product of the masses involved and distance between them ... are exactly the two factors that determine the forces of gravity between two objects.


How far is Nix from the sun?

The orbit of Pluto and its three moons (Charon, Hydra, and Nix) is on the average about 5,906,000,000 km (5.9 billion kilometers) from the Sun. The orbit of Pluto and the orbit of Nix would affect the actual distance at any given time, and this can vary from 4.4 to nearly 7.4 billion kilometers.

How many miles is Pluto from the Earth?

When I was a kid Pluto was closer to the sun than Neptune. Now it is further away. The distance between Pluto and earth will vary as Pluto orbits the sun--Pluto's orbit is fairly eccentric. At aphelion (furthest distance from the sun) Pluto is 48.871 AU (average earth/sun distance) from the sun. That is 4.542 billion miles. When the earth is on the opposite side of the sun, that would maximize the distance to Pluto at close to 4.635 billion miles (4.542 billion plus 93 million). Pluto will reach its next maximum distance from us in 2113, just over a century from now (2012). At its closest Pluto is 29.657 AU from the sun, or 2.757 billion miles. Some time during 1989 earth and Pluto were lined up on the same side of the sun, and the distance between them was minimized to roughly 2.664 billion miles.

How close is Pluto?

That's a difficult question to answer precisely. Pluto's average distance from the Sun is 39.4 AU. (An AU is an Astronomical Unit and is defined as the average distance between the center of the Earth and the center of the Sun.) One AU equals 92,955,807 million miles, or about 93 million miles, but Pluto's distance from the Sun ranges from 29.7 to 49.3 AU. So, depending on the orbits of Pluto and Earth, the distance between the two could be anywhere from 28.7 AU (Earth directly between Pluto and Sun when Pluto is closest to the Sun) to 50.3 AU (Earth directly opposite Sun from Pluto when Pluto is furthest from the Sun). However, keep in mind that an AU is an average and that Earth's actual orbit varies anywhere from 91 to 94.5 million miles. Hope that helps.

What is the distance between sun and Pluto in billion km?

The average distance between the Sun and Pluto is about 5.9 billion kilometers. Due to their elliptical orbits, this distance can vary significantly, with the closest approach being around 4.28 billion kilometers and the farthest distance reaching about 7.38 billion kilometers.


What distance is Pluto from sun?

what Pluto, the dwarf planet, is 5.9 billion kilometers from the Sun. Explain how a model showing the gravitational pull on Pluto would differ from your model of Earth’s orbit.?

The distance between the Sun and Earth is 149,600,000 kilometers, and the distance between the Sun and Pluto is 5.9 billion kilometers. The gravitational pull decreases with an increase in distance. So, the gravitational pull of the Sun on Pluto is much less than its pull on Earth. So, in the model, Pluto’s orbit would have a much larger radius than Earth’s orbit.
