Which characteristic of the planets in our solar
system increases as the distance from the sun
increases?
(1) equatorial diameter
(2) eccentricity of orbit
(3) period of rotation
(4) period of revolution

(4) period of revolution

Explanation:

The rotational period of the planet around the sun is directly impacted by the closeness and the far spaced planet as the gaseous planet have a slow speed of rotation as compared to the terrestrial planets  as they are far than the rocky planets like the Jupiter and the Saturn and the other gas planet that rotates slower on their axis. As the mercury takes about 0.2 years to revolve and the that of the Jupiter is 11.9 years and that of the Saturn is 29.5 years and that of the Uranus is 84 years and that of the Neptune is about 164.8 years which is equal to about 60,190.03 days the longest thus the planet sped of rotation directly depends on the planet. Hence this shows that the planet that are near are less dense as the far off planets
