Asteroids, the majority of which orbit between Mars and Jupiter. Two major groups of asteroids in the Jovian orbit are the Trojans and the Greeks. In addition, many Kuiper Belt Objects also fit into this size range, which orbit in a ring beyond Neptune. Eris and Pluto two Kuiper Belt objects that are more than 500 miles in diameter.
A third category of such objects consists of the Oort Cloud, which is a shell of material orbiting the sun at roughly 50,000 AU, and is the source of long period comets.

Do quasars range between 1 and 500 miles in diameter and revolve around the sun?
Quasars are believed to be gigantic black holes - millions of times the mass of our Sun. If we were anywhere near a quasar, it would be more accurate to state that the Sun (or the Solar System) revolves around the quasar, not the other way round.
Do comets range from one to 500 miles in diameter and revolve around the sun?
The actual neucleus of a comet, the solid part, can be between a few hundred metres across, to 40 or more km in diameter. They are in orbit around the sun, but their distance from the sun during this time varies a lot. they spend a lot of time far out beonf the outer planets, but occasionally swing in close to the sun for short periods of time. This is when we see them.

Comets range in size from one to 500 miles in diameter and revolve around the sun?
This statement is false. Asteroids are the space objects that can range in size from one to 500 miles in diameter and revolve around the sun usually in an elliptical orbit. Asteroids are irregular in shape and have craters.

Scientists have not found the diameter of the sun and they probably never will because the sun is to hot to get close to so they can't make a measure for it.
