A planet's year consists of the time it takes it to orbit the Sun. The Earth takes 365 and a quarter days to do this. Every 4 years there is a leap year which catches us up on these fractional days.
The position of a planet in its orbit can be determined by comparing its relative position from Earth when the Earth is in the "same" location (same day of the year). The positions of Venus and Mercury, which are closer to the Sun than Earth, can be observed directly, or indirectly by their "phases." The observation of phases of outer planets is a much more complex process, but also illustrates comparative positions in their orbits.
The location of a planet can be determined with some precision should it experience occultation (blockage) by the Sun. This establishes it on the opposite side of the Sun from Earth.
distance from a source of light and how long it takes to orbit that source
Mercury has a year that is only 88 days long.
Due to the sun's gravity, the planets in our solar system revolve around the sun. This revolution around the sun determines our seasons.
A planet's rotation on its axis determines the length of its day.
A year on Earth is longer than it is on two other planets, and shorter than it is on the remaining five. The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer its year is.

Usually, its mass determines its weight.

Mercury has a year that is only 88 days long.
Uranuses year is 84.3 Earth years
the naked eye determines if it is visible.
One orbit around the Sun is what determines what one year is. Your answer is, "one year".
Depends on distance Earth takes one year The two closer planets (Mercury and Venus) take less than a year The other planets take more than a year
No planet in our Solar System has 248 days in a year.The closest are:-Venus 224 days - although Venus has a day which lasts 243 days.Earth 365 days
planets sun very long time
12 months is a year .
