Because they have a larger distance to cover in their revolution. It's like they have a bigger circle to go around, planets closer have a smaller circle to rotate around.
The farther it is from the sun the longer its period of revolution (its "year").
The farther away from the sun, the longer the period of revolution takes.
The planets are not all the same distance from the Sun, which determines how far they have to travel, and how fast they are moving. Planets farther from the Sun have much longer orbits and are not moving as quickly. So their period of revolution (year) is longer.
Yes the closer to the Sun a planet is the shorter is its Revolution (orbit), as it has less distance to travel to go round once.
The distance between an orbiting body and the body it's orbiting and the time it takes to complete each orbit are related, so the farther a body is from the sun, the longer its period of revolution will be. Kepler's third law of planetary motion states that the square of the orbital period is proportional to the cube of the orbit's semi-major axis. If you cube the average of the closest and farthest distances between a planet and the sun then divide by the square of the planet's orbital period, you should always get about 25 quintillion cubic kilometers per square day. Therefore, the gas giant with the shortest period of revolution is the one that is closest to the sun, Jupiter.
The farther it is from the sun the longer its period of revolution (its "year").
The farther it is from the sun the longer its period of revolution (its "year").

They all have a difference because they all are not the same distance from the Sun, which determines how far they have to travel, and how fast they are moving. Planets farther from the Sun have much longer orbits and are not moving as quickly. So their period of revolution (year) is longer.
The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes to revolve around it.
The planets are not all the same distance from the Sun, which determines how far they have to travel, and how fast they are moving. Planets farther from the Sun have much longer orbits and are not moving as quickly. So their period of revolution (year) is longer.
Jupiter's period of revolution is longer than the inner planets' periods of revolution because it is so much farther away from the Sun. Jupiter has to travel over 2 billion miles (3.2 billion kilometers) father than Mars to get around the Sun. Jupiter's orbit is almost 4 times longer than that of Mars in distance. Also Jupiter orbits more slowly. So it takes Jupiter 6 times longer than Mars to orbit the Sun. (Mars is is farthest inner planet from then Sun.)
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.)
Yes the closer to the Sun a planet is the shorter is its Revolution (orbit), as it has less distance to travel to go round once.
They come closer together, then farther apart, and then closer, with a period of 26 months. The "closest" that Mars ever comes to Earth is about 38 million miles, and the farthest apart is about 240 million miles when we are on opposite sides of the Sun.
The relationship that exists between a planet's distance from the Sun and its period of revolution is that the closer the planet is from the Sun, the less amount of time it takes for the planet to complete its period of revolution.
Summer, because the Earth is on an ellipse and the Sun is not centered. Therefore, the Sun is farther in the Winter and closer in the Summer.
