All the planets in the Solar System have elliptical orbits so that their distance from the sun varies over the course of their orbit.
In terms of Astronomical Units (AU), the average distance of the Earth from the Sun,the planetary distances are:
Mercury: 0.4 AU
Venus: 0.7 AU
Earth: 1 AU
Mars: 1.5 AU
Jupiter: 5.2 AU
Saturn: 9.5 AU
Uranus: 19.2 AU
Neptune: 30 AU.
1 AU = exactly 149,597,870,700 metres (or about 150 million km).
What else can I help you with?
How does the sun have gravity?
The sun has all the gravity to keep the planets a certain distance from the sun.
How does the planets distance from the sun affect the length of a day?
Not at all. The planet's daily rotation is independent of its distance from the Sun.
What is the Min distance from sun to all planets?
66.7 million miles
What is the average distance from all the other planets to the sun in meters?
2
What is the distance between planets?
The distances between the planets vary all the time since they all orbit the Sun at different rates.
What is the distance of planets is often written in this form?
AU - Astronomical units - Distance from the Earth to the Sun. Approx 93 million miles
Do planets collide when the distance of the planets from the sun change?
The distance of the planets from the sun does not change because of the gravity surrounding each planet is pulling them into continuous orbit.
How many planets are distance to the sun?
All of them? I don't understand what you're trying to ask.
What is the inner planets and why?
The inner planets listed in order from closest to the sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. They are called the inner planets because they are all within 1.52 AU of the Sun, whereas the Jovian planets are at a distance of 5+ AU. One AU is equal to the average distance between the Sun and the Earth or 93,000,000 miles.
Do all planets move around the sun or around the earth?
The planets that make part of the solar system move around the Sun. The huge gravity power of the Sun maintain all planets and moons orbiting around it on an elliptical form.
What rank is Saturn in out of all the planets?
It is the second largest planet. It is sixth in order of distance from the sun.
How many number of inner planets?
There are 4, all of which lie between the sun and the asteroid belt. These planets are (from lowest distance from the sun to the highest): Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.
