What planets and other objects revolve around the sun?

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto- though Pluto is no longer classed as a planet. In addition, between Mars and Jupiter is the asteroid belt and they also revolve (orbit the sun). Comets have a cigar shaped orbit but also revolve around the sun. There are many of them.


Why do some planets take longer to revolve?

Because they are farther away from the sun, and the sun is what they revolve around, so they have a longer distance to go. That obviously makes the day longer on that planet, along with all other time measurements. Some planets take longer to revolve because of their distance to the sun. The further a planet is, the more distance it has to cover and the weaker the sun's gravitational pull is. Planets farther away from the sun move more slowly, and have more distance to cover.


Are stars distant planets?

Stars are not planets. They are like our sun and may or may not have planets orbiting around them. Stars are hot and the heat makes them look like bright lights in the sky on a clear night. Planets do not create very much, if any, visible light and are much harder to see because they only reflect the light from stars.

How long does it take for planet Jupiter to revolve around the sun?

i think it's 4 1/2 years which is a lot faster than uranus which i believe takes like 10 years . don't quote me but uranus is farther than the earths 93,000,000 miles from the sun so it takes uranus a longer time to revolve around the sun, which gives scientists more reason to ask how's uranus doing today

Do planets revolve around the sun at the same speed?

No, planets do not revolve around the sun at the same speed. Their orbital speeds depend on their distance from the sun - planets closer to the sun have shorter orbital periods and faster speeds, while those further away have longer orbital periods and slower speeds.

Why does it takes some planets only days to revolve around the sun and other planets more than one hundred years?

It takes longer because the planets are differant distances away from the sun, the greater the difference the longer it take


If a planet has less gravity will it take longer to revolve around the sun?

No, it is the sun's gravity that affects the planets revolutions. The planet's distance from the sun is also very important in the time it takes to revolve around the sun.


Why do the outer planets revolve around the sun slower?

The outer planets revolve around the sun slower because they are farther away from the sun, which means they have a greater distance to travel in their orbits. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, planets that are farther from the sun have longer orbital periods.

Do planets tend to have more earth days the further they are from the sun?

Yes, planets that are farther from the sun have larger orbits and it takes then longer to revolve around the sun. Therefore, they have more earth days.
