Why on some occasions you can see the planets line up in the sky?
All of the planets orbit the sun at different rates, closer planets orbit quickly, while further planets orbit more slowly. They are all more or less on the same plane, so their paths in the sky will be similar to each other as the earth rotates. They sometimes appear to line up in the sky every now and then as they orbit at their different rates.
What is the driving force that keeps planets orbiting a star?
The driving force that keeps planets orbiting a star is gravity. The star's massive gravitational pull attracts the planets, keeping them in their orbits. Additionally, the planets' own orbital velocity creates a balance between the gravitational pull and their tendency to move in a straight line, resulting in stable orbits around the star. This interplay of gravitational force and motion is described by Kepler's laws of planetary motion and Newton's law of universal gravitation.
When did planets come in a straight line while revolving around sun?
The last time the planets aligned in a straight line while revolving around the sun was on March 20, 1345. This phenomenon, known as a planetary alignment, occurs when several planets appear in a line relative to the sun from the perspective of Earth.
Is 10 planets a lot to be orbiting a star Would it be unusual to come across this?
We don't know much about planets around other stars, except that they DO exist. Also, the exact number of planets would depend on where you choose to draw the line between "planet" and "asteroid".
Why don't planets fall to the sun?
Because they are rushing along, which tends to keep them going in a straight line, while the Sun's gravity pulls them sideways. The result is that they move in a curve in space round the Sun that goes on and on for ever.
DO we all die when the planets line?
no stupid. now why would we die when the planets line up?
What would happen to earth and other planets in the solar system without the suns gravitational force?
Each of the planets, moons and asteroids are actually moving fairly quickly. The Earth, for example, has an orbital speed of a little upwards of 66,000 miles per hour. Without gravity to keep things orbiting, everything would continue in a straight line straight out into space.
What year did the planets all line up?
There is no specific year when all the planets in our solar system are perfectly aligned. While they may appear close to alignment from our perspective on Earth, a true alignment where all the planets line up is a rare event due to their different orbital speeds and paths.
When will all the planets line up in a line?
The chances of the planets ever lining up are so statistically improbable that it is safe to say it will never happen. The actual chances of the planets ever lining up has been calculated to be about once every 8.6 x 1046 years. (That's once every 86 billion, trillion, trillion, trillion years.) Since the Sun will be gone in about 10 billion years, it is impossible for this to happen.
What day do the planets line up in a line?
hello
What happens to the speed of planets orbiting the sun as you get closer to the sun?
As you get closer to the sun, the speed of planets increases due to the stronger gravitational pull from the sun. This increase in speed is necessary to balance the pull of gravity with the planet's tendency to move in a straight line. This phenomenon is described by Kepler's second law of planetary motion.
