A satellite in an elliptical orbit travels at constant what?
If the path is perfectly circular, yes, the speed is constant. This should not be confused with the velocity, because while speed is constant, its direction is not; therefore velocity is always changing.
Does earth travel on an elliptical orbit?
Yes, it does.
Is a asteroid's orbit elliptical?
Yes. They orbit the Sun and as per Kepler's first law they follow an elliptical path. Do note that a circular orbit is a special type of elliptical orbit.
What has elliptical orbits?
As an elliptical orbit is any orbit that isn't perfectly circular, everything has an elliptical orbit. The planets Mercury and Pluto have the most elliptical orbits of the planets, and are easily seen to be oval shaped. Comets also have highly elliptical orbits.
Which planets move in an elliptical orbit?
All the planets move with an elliptical orbit, but with a very low eccentricity.
Which two planets has the most elliptical orbit?
The planet with the most elliptical orbit is Mercury. Second is Mars.
Which planet has most elliptical orbit?
Mars has the most elliptical orbit. The earth's is almost a perfect circle
Assume that the moon travel at constant speed in a circular orbit around the earth is the moon's velocity is constant?
yes
What is the shape of its orbit?
elliptical
Does elliptical orbit affect it's distance from the sun?
Yes, the distance from the sun is variable for anything with an elliptical orbit.
Make a sentence with elliptical?
The Earth has an elliptical orbit around the Sun.
What planet moved in an elliptical orbit?
