It affects the characteristics of the planets by the highs and lows of the temperature of the planet. It also would affect, if there was, the life on the outer planets. If there were life on the outer planets, they would freeze.

[Jupiter mostly heats itself by it's core.

Jupiter was going to be a star, but it didn't weigh enough or wasn't hot enough to become a star.]

Why does each planet have different facts?

Each planet has different characteristics, such as size, distance from the sun, and composition, that result in unique facts about each planet. Factors like gravity, atmosphere, and temperature also play a role in determining the specific features and conditions found on each planet.


How does each planet's distance from the sun affect its characteristics?

The further away from the sun, the less light/heat/radiation reaches it, it also means that the orbit is longer. The outer planets are all gaseous (the gas giants) due to the pressure difference


How does the distance of the sun affect the velocity of a planet?

From Kepler's laws it can be shown that the orbital speeds of the planets are proportional to the inverse square root of their distances from the Sun. Thus a planets at four times the distance would travel at half the speed.


How does distance from the sun affect a planet's climate?

The distance from the sun affects a planet's climate primarily by influencing the amount of solar energy received. Planets closer to the sun receive more energy, leading to higher temperatures, while planets farther away receive less energy, resulting in colder temperatures. This can affect factors such as the presence of liquid water and the overall habitability of a planet.


What is the relation of the planet's temperature to it's distance?

if you are asking "what is the relation of the planet's temperature to it's distance from the sun" then the answer is: Planets closer to the sun tend to be warmer than planets further from the sun.

Does a planet's distance from the sun affect it's density?

Very generally, the outer four planets are less dense than the four inner rocky planets, but it's more to do with planet type rather than their distance from the sun.


What is the distance from the planets?

the distance from the planets is 6.5 million miles between each planet.


How does the planets distance from the sun affect its conditions?

The farther away from the sun the planet is, the more space it has to cover. Therefore, the planets distance from the sun whereas, if i am half the distance from Earth/Sun, that planet will get more energy. But if I am twice the distance from Earth/Sun, I will receive less energy.

Do planets collide when the distance of the planets from the sun change?

The distance of the planets from the sun does not change because of the gravity surrounding each planet is pulling them into continuous orbit.
