Define orbit and axis of the planets?
The orbit of a planet is the path it follows as it travels around the sun. The axis of a planet is an imaginary line running through its center and around which it rotates. The tilt of a planet's axis relative to its orbit affects its seasons.
What is earthes orbit?
An orbit is the path a planet takes around the sun. Earth's orbit is an ellipse. It takes the Earth one year to travel along the elliptical path around the sun.
What is a path that one object such as a planet takes as it moves around another object?
The path that one object such as a planet takes as it moves around another object is called an orbit. Orbits can be elliptical, circular, or other shapes, depending on the gravitational forces between the two objects.
What does it mean for a planet to revolve around the sun?
That it orbits the Sun as a result of gravity. A year is the time it takes for a planet to orbit the sun, what we know as a 'year' is merely an Earth year which is the time it takes for the Earth to orbit the Sun. For instance, a Saturn year is the time it takes Saturn to orbit the sun.
What is the path earth takes around the sun or the path the moon takes around earth?
That would be an elliptical orbit.
How do the planets move around the sun to create a year?
the planets move around in an oval shape around the sun there are 2 ways they do that 1.the revolution around the sun 2.spinning around if a planet goes around the sun then that's called a revolution it takes 365 days (1 year) for the earth to go around the sun if a planet spins around that is 1 day it takes 24 hours (1 day) for earth to spin around some planets take longer to go around the sun and some go faster than the earth
The speed of a planet in its elliptical orbit around the sun?
The path that planets take around the sun is called it's orbit. The gravitation pull of the sun keeps each planet in it's orbit. Each planets orbit varies in the time it takes to make one trip around the sun.
What do you call the path to the planets takes?
I believe you are asking about their orbits around the Sun. The orbit is the (elliptical) path they take around the Sun. It takes a certain amount of time to complete, which is the planet's "year".One calendar year on Earth is (more or less) the time for one full revolution of Earth around the Sun.
What is the path of the planets?
Its Orbit.Johannes Kepler (Germany), who lived between the time of Copernicus (Poland) and Isaac Newton (England), correctly postulated that all of the sun's planets indeed revolve about the sun in orbits which have the shape of an ellipse, with the sun at one focus of the ellipse. Isaac Newton, in his Principiae Mathematica, further stated, essentially, that any planet orbiting any star, or any moon orbiting any planet, would follow an elliptical path.
When does Neptune orbit the Sun fastest?
Neptune orbits the Sun (as do most planets) with an elliptical orbit. When the orbit takes the planet closest to the Sun it is moving faster than when it is furthest from the Sun when on an elliptical orbit.
What shape is the path a planet takes around the sun called?
Ellipse. One of Newton's Laws of Planetary Motion sate that the planets revolve in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one of the two foci.
What do you call the path of the earth takes as it revolves around the sun?
The path that Earth takes as it revolves around the sun is called its orbit.
