How long was sputnik 1 in orbit?

What planet's moon takes the longest time to orbit its planet?

Neptune is the gas giant furthest from the Sun and Kepler's third law tells us that the period of revolution of a planet around the sun increases as distance from the Sun increases. It does not matter if the planet is a gas giant or not. The law says period depends on distance and not mass.It takes 60,190 days for Neptune to orbit the Sun which is about165 Earth years. For that matter, one Neptune Year is 89,666 Neptune days.If Pluto was still a planet, it would get the record for the longest year since it is, on the average, further than the other planets.Pluto has an orbital period of 248 earth years. Since Pluto was discovered in 1930, it has only completed about 1/3 of a revolution.Neptune


How long does it take a rocket to orbit the moon?

It takes a rocket approximately 3 days to travel from Earth to the Moon and enter lunar orbit. Once in orbit, the time it takes for a rocket to complete one orbit around the Moon depends on its altitude and speed, but typically takes a few hours.


How fast is sputnik and how long is its orbit?

Sputnik traveled at an average speed of 27,600 kilometers per hour (17,100 miles per hour) in its orbit around Earth. Its orbit took approximately 96.2 minutes to complete one revolution around the planet.


What planet has the shortest year in the solar system?

Mercury does. It's the planet closest to the sun, so therefore it's orbital rotation around the sun will be the quickest.

No. Venus is the 2nd planet from the Sun; Earth is #3.


What is the relation of the planet's period of revolution to its distance?

The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes to revolve around the sun in its orbit. The ratio of (Orbital period)2/(Semi-major axis)3 is a constant for every object in solar orbit. (That's Kepler's 3rd law of planetary motion.)
