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.
Is Venus a star?
No, Venus is not a star. It is a planet in our solar system, the second closest planet to the Sun. Stars are massive celestial bodies that produce their own light through nuclear fusion, while planets do not produce their own light and instead reflect light from the Sun.

Why does mercury have a short year?
Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. According to Kepler's law of planetary motion, the nearer a planet is to the sun, the faster it orbits the Sun.

Does a planet travel fastest or slowest when near the sun?

Which planet will be farthest away from the sun in 1999?
Back in 1999, Pluto was still a planet, but was nearer to the Sun than Neptune was from1979 to1999. Pluto's orbit is fairly eccentric; during parts of its orbit, it is nearer to the Sun than Neptune is. So, answer: Neptune was farthest, but it became Pluto again some time in 1999.
Why are the lenghts of the years on the other planets different?
The length of a planet's year is the time it takes to complete one orbit around the Sun. The closer a planet is to the Sun the shorter its year. There are 2 reasons for that: 1) The planet's orbital path is shorter. 2) The nearer a planet is to the Sun, the faster it moves in its orbit.
Why does mercury need to revolve very fast around the sun?
According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, the nearer a planet is to the Sun, the faster it travels in its orbit.
How many planets are there starting from the planet nearer to sun?
There are eight planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus Pluto used to be a planet but in 2006 it was decided that it was a dwarf planet.
