Mars takes longer to make one orbit of the sun. Its slower, and it also has further to go. Planets orbiting speeds get slower the further you go out.

Does earth move faster or slower when in an elliptical orbit?

Slower or faster than what? - When the Earth is nearer the Sun (periapsis), it moves faster than when it is farther away from the Sun (apapsis).


In what month do the earth move faster around the sun December or June?

The Earth moves faster around the sun in January when it is closest to the sun in its orbit (perihelion) and slower in July when it is farthest from the sun (aphelion). Therefore, it moves faster in December than in June.


Do asteroids move slower than stars?

Most asteroids orbit around stars and move faster than them.


How fast do earth around the sun?

The Earth's orbit is an ellipse with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse. But it isn't very eccentric; the orbit is almost circular, but not quite.If the Earth's orbit was circular, it would travel at about 67,000 miles per hour. At perihelion (in January) the Earth is moving a little faster than that, while at aphelion (in July) it is moving just a little slower.


Why is there a difference in how many days it takes to see all the moon phases and how long it takes to revolve around the earth?

That is because the Moon's orbit is not exactly circular. Any orbit of one object around another is an ellipse; in this case, when the Moon is closer to Earth, it moves faster; when it is farther away, it moves slower.


Which two planets orbit the sun faster than earth?

Mercury and Venus orbit the sun faster than Earth. Mercury has the shortest orbit at around 88 Earth days, while Venus takes about 225 Earth days to complete one orbit.


What would happen if earth moved slower in its orbit?

If Earth moved slower in its orbit around the Sun, its orbit would be elongated and the duration of a year would increase. This could lead to changes in climate patterns and potentially affect the length of seasons. However, the overall impact would depend on how much slower Earth's orbital speed becomes.


Which planets will orbit faster or slower?

Neptune is the slowest and mercury is the fastest


How does a planets distance from the sun affect its orbit speed?

Since the gravitational effect of the Sun decreases with distance from it, the planets farther from the Sun do not have to move as rapidly to remain in orbit. (In fact, the speed is what establishes the orbit, not the other way around.) So the outer planets, in addition to having much farther to travel in their orbits, are also moving more slowly. This combination means that outer planets take very much longer to orbit the Sun than do the inner planets such as Earth. By comparison, the length of time it takes (in Earth years) for each of the outer planets to make one complete revolution around the Sun: Jupiter - 11.9 Earth years Saturn - 29.5 Earth years Uranus - 84 Earth years Neptune - 165 Earth years


When viewed from above the North Celestial pole the moon orbits at rate faster or slower than the earth spins?

Im not sure i understand your question but doesn't the earth spin quite a bit faster because it takes 24 hrs for the earth to complete one rotation or spin but it takes the moon about 15 days to complete one orbit of the earth


Why is Jupiter moving slower than earth around the sun?

Jupiter is farther away from the sun and has less gravitational pull from it than earth , if it went faster it would leave the solar system. and it is because it is the biggest planet on earth so it needs more force to move it around faster


What causes seasonal changes on earth's?

earth's elliptical orbit around the sun causes the changes. (science fact: as earth gets closer to the sun, it goes faster.) look up on Google images of "earth's orbit and seasons"
