The distance between planets in a small replica model would vary depending on the scale used for the model. For example, using a 1:100 scale, Earth would be about 1.5 meters away from the Sun, while Mars would be about 5.6 meters away. Adjusting the scale will change the distances accordingly.
What else can I help you with?
Do small planets orbit slowly?
It dose not matter how small the planet is, what makes them orbit slower is how far away the planet is from the sun.
Why did they take away Pluto's planet status?
it was so small it wasnt exactly a planet it was a dwarf planet
How do planets change orbital speed change?
Planets with elliptical orbits are affected by the difference in the strength of the Sun's gravity as they move closer to, or farther away from, the Sun. The only other major effect on planets are the gravity of other planets, notably Jupiter and Neptune. Except for Mars, Ceres, Pluto, and trans-Neptunian planets, the effect is extremely small -- it has resulted in stable orbital resonances between several small outer planets and the planet Neptune.
Why do the planets look so small from Earth?
The planets appear small from Earth because of their great distance from us. Even though they are large celestial bodies, their size pales in comparison to the vastness of space. Our perspective from Earth makes them appear small in the night sky.
Explain how Copernicus concluded that stars were farther away than planets?
Copernicus decided this with more of an educated guess than anything. For example is when your standing right next to a plane it's huge Right? Well when it's flying it looks really small. He used the same reasoning for stars. Since it looks small it must be farther away.

How are planets closest to the sun different from the planets that are farther away?
The planets that are closest to the sun get more heat than the ones more farther away. The four inner planets are dense and rocky. The four other planets have small solid cores surrounded by vast atmospheres. The four inner planets have one significant satellite among them (the moon), while each of the outer planets has many satellites. The four inner planets are small, while the outer planets are massive.
How many planets away from the earth is the moon?
No planets away.
Are planets separated by small distances?
A: To our solar system the distance is great But compared the the universe it is inches away

How are outer planets different from smaller planets?
They are bigger because the Outer Planets had less gas and dust taken away from them when the solar system was forming. The Inner planets were closer to the sun, so the sun took more gas and dust away from those bodies, but didn't take away from the Outer bodies.

What planet do most known extrasolar planet least resemble?
We tend to see the large planets farthest away from their stars. So it is unlikely we will find any small planets close to their star similar to Mercury.
Can planets travel away from the sun?
no
How many planets is it away from the sun?
Jupiter would be.....5 planets from the sun. =]
