I make it around 2875 days or 7 years 11 months, if we look at the revolution times of all of the other planets, which follow a common law based on distance from the sun.

From Kepler's third law a hypothetical planet that is twice as far from the sun as the earth should have a period of?

Kepler's third law states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of its semi-major axis. If a hypothetical planet is twice as far from the sun as Earth, its semi-major axis would be 2 times larger. Therefore, the period of this hypothetical planet would be √(2^3) = 2.83 times longer than Earth's period.


What happens to the sun when the distance increases orbital period of planet?

If a planet's distance from the sun would increase, its revolutionary path would be extended (because it would have to traverse more distance), ergo increasing its period of revolution. Take an ellipse and enlarge it, then measure the perimeter of each ellipse, the larger one will have a larger perimeter.


Which planet in the solar system has the longest revolution period?

Revolution of a planet can mean two things:* orbital period - the time it takes to orbit the Sun - then the answer is Neptune, the farthest planet. Neptune takes about 165 years to orbit the sun once. It is thus the planet in our solar system with the longest period of revolution. The dwarf planet Sedna may take as long as 12,000 years to orbit the sun.* rotational period - the time it takes to spin on the axis - then the answer is Venus. Venus has the longest period of rotation (day) at 243 Earth days.Eris, which is larger than Pluto, orbits once every 557 years.


The time a planet takes to make a single trip around the sun is its?

The time it takes a planet to rotate (spin) on its own axis is called its day. Earth has a day of 24 hours. Jupiters is the smallest in the solar system at about 9 hours 55 minutes; Venus takes about 243 days to rotate once.


Which planet has the shortest rotational period?

Jupiter is the planet with the shortest rotation time. It rotates once every 9 hours and 50 minutes.Jupiter in the planet with the shortest rotation time, with a day approximately 12 hours long.

What would be the period of revolution for a hypothetical planet just above the surface of the sun at a distance from the solar center of 1 million km?

That would have the planet at a distance of 300,000 km from the surface. This would be in the corona region. No matter can exist in this area. At millions of degrees in temperature, everything is plasma in this area.


How would you know a planet's period of revolution?

all u have to do is die


What planet would take 164 of earths days to go around the sun?

There is no planet with a revolution period of 164 Earth days. Neptune, however, has a revolution period of 164.8 Earth years.


Is there any planet which have same rotational and revolution periods as earth?

No. Mars has a similar rotational period but not revolution. For a planet to have the same revolution period as Earth would mean it would have to be in the same Orbit as Earth, with catastrophic results. One was in the same orbit as Earth during it's formation, it crashed into the Earth creating the Moon. It's possible that some extrasolar planet (that is, a planet of a star other than the Sun) might by coincidence have nearly the same rotational and/or revolution period, but we don't know of any yet (and it's not very likely that we ever will).


Suppose astronomers discover a new planet orbiting your sunthe orbit has a semimajor axis of 2.52 AU what is the planets period of revolution?

The period of revolution can be calculated using Kepler's Third Law: P^2 = a^3, where P is the period in years and a is the semimajor axis in astronomical units (AU). In this case, the period of revolution of the planet would be approximately 4.00 years.


How would you define revolution of Planets in the solar system?

The revolution of planets in the solar system refers to the motion of a planet in its orbit around the Sun. Each planet follows an elliptical path with the Sun at one of the foci. The time it takes for a planet to complete one revolution is known as its orbital period.


What happens to the sun when the distance increases orbital period of planet?

If a planet's distance from the sun would increase, its revolutionary path would be extended (because it would have to traverse more distance), ergo increasing its period of revolution. Take an ellipse and enlarge it, then measure the perimeter of each ellipse, the larger one will have a larger perimeter.


How old would you have to be to witness a complete revolution of the planet Pluto?

dead


If there was a planet between mercury and the sun what would the period of revolution around the sun be?

Alright, so all the abouve is completely wronge. The revolution would only be 3 hours. Rounded ofcorce, but aproximatly would be only 3 hours. <-- This is totaly fool proof :D. Its right don't wory .


Whats Mars revolution?

if i went to mars to check without being trained i would die


What is the period revolution of the sun?

The sun does revolve in the Galaxy, but the period at which a single revolution would occur would be hundreds of millions of years. The sun spins every 25 days.
