Length of year on Jupiter

Answer 1

Using Kepler's 3rd(?) law, the duration of a planet's orbit squared is the same as the planet's distance from the Sun cubed . Jupiter is (on average) 5.2 times further from the Sun than our planet, so we say 5.2 AU(Astronomical Units- distance from Earth to Sun)

Using Keplers Law

Length of Jovian Orbit Squared = 5.2 cubed (5.2x5.2x5.2) = 140.608

So to get the Jovian Orbital Duration we need the square root of 140.608

Which is 11.858. That's roughly 12 years

Answer 2

The planet Jupiter orbits the sun once each 4,332.7 days, or 11.8 years.

Answer 3

a Jupiter year is an approximately 12 Earth years, or 5380 Earth days.

Answer 4

The length of a year on Jupiter is about 11.9 Earth years. That is the time taken to orbit the Sun once.

Answer 5

The Jovian planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Of these, Neptune has the longest year, which lasts 165 Earth years.

Answer 6

A year on Jupiter is approximately 11.86 Earth years long. Jupiter takes this amount of time to orbit the Sun once.

Answer 7

compared with Earth 11.86 years

Answer 8

11.86 Earth years

Answer 9

9.8
