What is the relationship between a planets distance from the sun and distance between planets?

If two planets are in orbits with radii of R1 and R2, the distance between them varies from R2-R1 to R2+R1.


What is the relationship between the period of revolution and distance from the sun?

The period of revolution of a planet (time taken to complete one orbit around the sun) is directly proportional to its average distance from the sun. This relationship is described by Kepler's third law of planetary motion. Planets that are farther from the sun take longer to complete an orbit compared to planets that are closer to the sun.


What two factors affect a planets revolution?

Two factors that affect a planets revolution are distance from the sun and size.


What did Kepler discover about the distance of the planets from the sun and the length of their orbits?

Keplar showed that there is a relationship between the planets distance from the sun and the time taken for one orbit (planets year). This is described in Keplars 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?

The distance between the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) is comparatively smaller than the distance between the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) in our solar system. The inner planets are closer to the Sun and each other, while the outer planets are much farther apart due to the gap between the terrestrial and gas giant planets.

What are the comparisons of the revolution times of planets and can you relate them to distance from the sun.?

The relationship is given by Kepler's Third Law.


What is the relationship between the distance of the planets from the sun and the time it takes to revolve around the sun?

there is no true relationship between distance from the sun and orbit time as some planets go revolves at a different velocity.

What is the relationship between a planet's rotation and a planet's revolution?

There is no real relationship, a planets spin depends on collisions it may have had in the past, rather than on its distance from the sun (which governs its orbital rotation time around the sun).

How is the period of revolution of a planets related to its distance from the sun?

The farther it is from the sun the longer its period of revolution (its "year").


Is the distance between inner planets less or greater than the distance between the outer planets?

The inner planets are closer together than the outer ones.
