Central accelerating force, in the case of an orbit this would be determined by the central mass.
semi-major Radius of the orbit.
eccentricity of the orbit.
The value of the Gravitational constant.
For a central mass reference these four are sufficient. If you consider a 'center of mass' reference however then the mass of the orbital is also required to determine the orbital characteristics.

What factors would affect the length of the day?
The length of the day would change if either the rotational speed of the the planet or the orbital distance from the sun changed. However, if you mean what factors affect the length of daylight, then that is different.
The Length of an Earth year is based on Earth's?
orbit
How does the magnitude of the velocity affect a planet's orbit?
well its because the orbit is really big and it could cover everything..
True or false the length of a planet's year increases as its distance from the sun increases?
True. The length of time that it takes to complete one orbit around the Sun is directly related to the distance of the orbit from the Sun.
Does the sun's position in the sky affect the length of daylight?
Does the sun's position in the sky affect the length of daylight ?
What Two factors that affect the gravitational attraction between objects are?
gravity and its orbit
What are two factors that affect gravitational attraction between objects?
gravity and its orbit

What are the two factors affect the gravitational attraction between two object?
gravity and its orbit
How does a planet's distance from the sun affect the length of its year?
the closer the smaller orbit (a year is one complete orbit) so the year is smaller
What factors affect the texture of igneous rock?
the length of time the magma had to cool
What factors can affect the texture of igneous rock?
The length of time the magma had to cool
What are factors that affect resistance of electricity?
Temperature, thickness, length and type of wire.
What are two factors that impact the length of a season?
Earth's tilt relative to the sun and Earth's position in its orbit around the sun.
What are the factors that affect resistance?
The factors are: length, cross-sectional area and nature of substance.
What factors can affect the texture of an igneous rock?
The length of time the magma had to cool
What factors can affect the focal length of a lens?
There are many factors affecting the focal length of a lens, these include: - The thickness of a lens. - The curviture of a lens. - The material the lens is made out of. E.g. Glass or plastic. - The light intensity going through the lens. - The shape of the lens. These, are just few of the many factors that may affect the focal length of a particular lens. I hope this has helped.
