The planet that has an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto?
Neptune.
What dwarf planet takes 252years to orbit the sun?
The dwarf planet that takes 252 years to orbit the sun is called Pluto. It was reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006.
What are the qualification of dwarf planet?
To be classified as a dwarf planet, an object must orbit the sun, be nearly spherical in shape, and have not cleared its orbit of debris. Additionally, it must not be a moon of another object. Currently, there are five recognized dwarf planets in our solar system.
What is the planet with an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto?
The planet with an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto is Neptune. Neptune, the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun in the Solar System, has an orbit that crosses Pluto's orbit due to its elliptical path around the Sun. This orbital relationship between Neptune and Pluto is one of the factors that led to Pluto's reclassification as a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union.
What must a planet have which a dwarf planet doesn't?
A planet: 1) Orbits the Sun or some other star 2) Gravity has to shape it into a sphere & 3) Have an orbit that does NOT link up to another planet's orbit A dwarf planet is classified if it does not have one of these 3 things. Reason 3 (like most other dwarf planets in our Solar System) is what makes Pluto a dwarf planet (since some of it's orbit links up to Neptune's orbit)
What does a dwarf planet orbit?
The sun
What makes a planet be classified as a dwarf planet instead of a moon?
Moons orbit planets. Planets (and dwarf planets) orbit stars.
Where is the dwarf planet churon lacated in the solar system?
There is no dwarf planet named Churon. Charon is a real object, though. it is not a dwarf planet, however: it is the largest moon of the dwarf planet Pluto, which has an elliptical orbit that lies mostly beyond the orbit of Neptune.
How do the orbit of planets differ from the orbit of moons?
A planet orbits a star. A moon orbits a planet or dwarf planet.
What are the things to be considered before saying that a heavenly body is a dwarf planet?
Before classifying a heavenly body as a dwarf planet, considerations include its size (not massive enough to clear its orbit of other debris), its shape (does not have a spherical shape), and its orbit (must orbit the sun and not be a satellite of another planet). These criteria are outlined by the International Astronomical Union for defining dwarf planets.
Is the planet Pluto have an unusual orbit?
Yes because it is a dwarf planet.
Is there a moon that doesn't orbit a planet?
Yes, there are moons that do not orbit planets but instead orbit other celestial bodies like asteroids or dwarf planets. For example, some moons of dwarf planets in the Kuiper Belt do not orbit a planet.
