Why is venus' day longer than its earth year?
Because it goes slower and its orbit around the Sun is bigger, Jupiter's year is longer than Earth's year.
What relationship between year and orbit?
Well if you are talking about planet Earth the orbit around the Sun takes one year.
What does the earth orbit around and how long does it takes?
The Earth orbits around the Sun; it takes one year for an orbit.The Earth orbits around the Sun; it takes one year for an orbit.The Earth orbits around the Sun; it takes one year for an orbit.The Earth orbits around the Sun; it takes one year for an orbit.
When is earth's orbit at its closest point the sun?
Earth's perihelion happens around January 3 each year.
What happens to the orbit of the earth when velocity is halved?
Kepler's third law says the square of the period of a satellite is proportional to the cube of its semi-major axis. The fact that the Earth's orbit is not a perfect circle complicates matters, since it makes it depend a bit on at just what point in the orbit you cut its velocity in half. However, if you were to somehow cancel out half the Earth's orbital velocity without destroying the Earth in the process (it's hard to know exactly how one could do this), at the very least its orbit would become a lot more eccentric. (I've actually just used the very fun Universe Sandbox to simulate this, and it turns out that the Earth's orbit gets a lot more oval and the length of the year drops to a bit under half what it is now ... again, the precise details depend on exactly where in its orbit Earth is. Typically, though, the Earth's new orbit would take it from approximately the distance from the Sun it currently is to considerably inside the orbit of Mercury every year.)
Why is a year on venus shorter then a year on earth?
A year is shorter on Venus than on Earth. A year is the time taken for a planet to orbit the Sun. Venus has a smaller orbit and a higher orbital speed.
Why is a year longer or shorter on Venus then on Earth?
A year is shorter on Venus than on Earth. A year is the time taken for a planet to orbit the Sun. Venus has a smaller orbit and a higher orbital speed.
Why does Venus take more than a year to go around the orbit?
because its further away from the earth
1 year on Venus?
Venus, the second planet from the sun, takes 224.7 Earth days to make a single orbit around the sun. This is about 0.62 Earth years.
Why is a year on Venus less than two days?
I want to start by correcting you. First off a year on Venus is not less than two days. In fact a year on Venus is 224.7days. However, the reason it is so much shorter than earth is purely based on it's location. The further a planet is from the sun, the larger it's orbit is. The larger the orbit, the longer the year. That is why Venus has a short year. It has a smaller orbit around the Sun.This answer still needs improving. So here goes.A year on Venus IS less than 2 VENUS days,but not less than 2 EARTHdays of course. There are two main definitions of a "day" in astronomy, buteither way the Venus year is less than 2 Venus days.
Is a year longer or shorter on Venus?
Shorter because its orbit is smaller and its takes less time to complete its round around sun
How fast does venus orbit the sun in miles?
2 miles a year.
Why is venus' day longer than its earth year?
Because it goes slower and its orbit around the Sun is bigger, Jupiter's year is longer than Earth's year.
What is earthes orbit?
An orbit is the path a planet takes around the sun. Earth's orbit is an ellipse. It takes the Earth one year to travel along the elliptical path around the sun.
Is the Sun pulling Venus closer to the Sun?
Yes but Venus' momentum keeps it (almost) in the same orbit year after year. Eventually either Venus will be pulled into the Sun or the Sun will expand (nothing to do with Venus gravity or orbit, just a phase of the Sun's development) and encompass Venus (and Mercury as well as Earth) obliterating the inner planets.
Does venus take less than one earth year to make one revolution around the sun?
Yes. Smaller orbit means shorter time. Larger orbit means longer time.
How long is the Orbital period on Venus?
Venus takes 225 days to orbit once around the Sun. This makes one year on Venus less than one year on Earth.
