What is the relationship between the distance a planet is from the sun and its year?
The distance a planet is from the sun influences its year length. Planets closer to the sun have shorter years because they travel a shorter distance to complete one orbit around the sun. Conversely, planets farther from the sun have longer years because they have a greater distance to travel in their orbit.
What takes long to orbit the sun inner or outer planets?
The outer planets take longer.
When planets orbit a star?
When don't they? If a planet is in orbit around a star, it is in continual orbit. Orbital periods (the lengths of time it takes different planets to complete one orbit) are different from planet to planet, and are related to the distances between the planets and their stars.
What time is taken by a planet to orbit the sun?
Different planets have different times to orbit the Sun. Mercury takes 88 days. Uranus takes 84 Earth years.
Why do different planets have different length orbits?
Different planets have different length orbits because they are at varying distances from the sun. The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes to complete an orbit. This is due to the gravitational pull of the sun, which affects the speed at which planets travel around it.
What do you call the path to the planets takes what keeps the planets on this path?
The path a planet takes is called an orbit.The planets are kept in orbit by the gravitational pull of the star (in our case the Sun) they orbit.
Which of the planets take less than a year to orbit the sun?
The two closer to the sun than the earth, mercury and Venus. The further you go out from the sun, the longer it takes to orbit it.
The planets move around the sun in a path called an?
orbit, which is the curved path that a planet takes as it revolves around the sun.
The path the planet takes around the sun?
The path the planets take around the sun, is called a orbit.
What is the path planets takes around the sun called?
The path is called the orbit. There are 8 planets (excluding Pluto and the other dwarf planets) with separate paths at various unique distances from the Sun.The planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune (in order of increasing distance from the Sun).The path that a planet takes while traveling around the sun is called its orbit. Mercury has the fastest orbit, at 88 days. Neptune has the longest orbit, at 165 years.
Do planets orbit once a year?
Only the earth orbits the sun once a year. Mars orbits the sun once every 2 years. As you get closer to the sun the planets orbit the sun in less than a year. As you get past Mars, it takes even longer.
Why do some planets take longer to orbit the sun than others?
Planets further out from the sun have a larger orbit to travel around, which takes more time. This is because their orbital path is longer, meaning they move at a slower average speed compared to planets closer to the sun. This results in different orbital periods for different planets.
What is the relationship between the distance a planet is from the sun and its year?
The distance a planet is from the sun influences its year length. Planets closer to the sun have shorter years because they travel a shorter distance to complete one orbit around the sun. Conversely, planets farther from the sun have longer years because they have a greater distance to travel in their orbit.
Why does the moon seem to pass close to other planets during its orbit?
The satellite that orbits the planet Earth is called Moon, and completes a complete orbit cycle once every 27.32 days. The Moon may appear closer to other planets at times because the path the Moon takes around the Earth is elliptical, meaning more oval then circular.
What takes long to orbit the sun inner or outer planets?
The outer planets take longer.
Why do planets closer to the sun have a shorter year?
Their orbit is a smaller circle than the ones further out, and as long as they are moving at relatively the same speed they will complete each orbit faster. Check out the planetary orbits link, it gives a really cool description and moving diagram
What is one day for all plamets?
There is no such thing as 1 day for all planets. Theres basically something called Orbit. The earth takes approximately 365 days to Orbit.
