How do astronomers observe planet that are too far to see kids answer please?

They measure how bright the star is then take a series of readings to see if it gets less bright. If it does, it is most likely because a planet in passing in front of the star and blocking part of the light that we see. Much like a person putting their hand up to block sunlight from their eyes.

What happens to the orbital velocity when a planet gets closer to the sun?

As a planet gets closer to the Sun, its orbital velocity increases. This is due to the stronger gravitational pull exerted by the Sun at shorter distances, which causes the planet to accelerate. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, specifically the law of areas, the planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times, resulting in higher speeds when nearer to the Sun. Thus, the closer a planet is to the Sun, the faster it moves in its orbit.

Would Mars be considered the brightest planet in the earth's sky?

Mars is not the brightest planet in Earth's sky. As seen from Earth, Venus is the brightest planet. Venus orbits the sun one step inward from Earth, and Mars orbits one step outward. Venus gets slightly closer to us than Mars does, but the main reason Venus looks so bright is that its surface is covered with highly reflective clouds. Mars isn't the second-brightest planet either. Jupiter is. Jupiter is even farther away than Venus or Mars, but it's huge. A dozen planet Earths could fit side by side in front of Jupiter. Mars sometimes gets as bright as Jupiter. That happened last in 2003. But generally Mars exhibits a range in brightness as it and we orbit the sun. Mars can be as bright as the brightest stars (but not as bright as Venus, and usually not as bright as Jupiter). Or Mars can be relatively faint.

Why are there different day lenghts in different seasons?

in summer the earth is closer to the sun so it gets more daylight (sun). in winter the sun is further away from the sun so it gets less daylight.

What planet shows up in the afternoon?

That really varies depending on the month and year. In April 2012, right after sunset - or even before sunset, if you look carefully - you can see Venus, which looks like a very bright star. When it gets a bit darker, you can see Jupiter, which looks as another bright star, but less bright than Venus.
