Correct Option (b)
Jupiter takes the maximum time for one revolution around the Sun among the given options. According to Kepler's Third Law of Planetary Motion, the orbital period of a planet increases with its average distance from the Sun. Planets farther from the Sun have longer orbital periods.
- Jupiter: Approximately 11.86 Earth years
- Mars: Approximately 1.88 Earth years
- Earth: Approximately 1 Earth year (365.25 days)
- Venus: Approximately 0.62 Earth years (225 days)
Among the planets listed, Jupiter is the farthest from the Sun, and therefore, it has the longest orbital period.
Incorrect Options
Earth (a): Earth is closer to the Sun than Jupiter. Its orbital period is approximately 365.25 days (1 Earth year), which is significantly shorter than Jupiter's revolution time.
Mars (c): Mars is also closer to the Sun than Jupiter. Its orbital period is approximately 687 Earth days (about 1.88 Earth years), making its revolution time considerably shorter than Jupiter's.
Venus (d): Venus is the second planet from the Sun and the closest to the Sun among the given options. Its orbital period is approximately 225 Earth days, which is the shortest among the listed planets.
