What else can I help you with?
What is The orbit of a planet around the sun is a(n)?
If you mean the shape of the orbit, that's an ellipse.
What planet is the imaginary path that the planet travels on around the sun?
mercury. I think you mean "Orbit".
What planet do comets orbit?
Comets don't orbit a planet, they orbit the sun.
What is a word that means A path the planet travels around the sun?
I assume you mean "around the Sun". That is the Earth's orbit. The plane of this orbit is called the ecliptic.
What do you call a path that the planet follows to obit around the sun?
The path that the planet follows is simply called the orbit. Orbit can mean 'to revolve around the sun' or it can be referred to as the path itself, e.g. 'Earth is following its orbit.'
How long does it take mercury to orbit the planet?
Do you mean how long does it take Mercury to orbit the sun ? 87.969 days
Does Venus orbit a planet?
No, Venus does not orbit a planet. It orbits a star, which is our Sun. It can not orbit a planet , if it did it would be a moon
Which planet has the smallest orbit and the largest orbit?
The plane with the smallest orbit is Mercury, and the planet with the largest orbit is Neptune.
Which orbit is Uranus in?
Uranus is the seventh planet in our Solar System. It is in orbit around the Sun.
The point a planet is farthest away from the sun in its orbit is called what?
A planet's farthest point from the sun in its orbit is called aphelion. This is when the planet is at its greatest distance from the sun.
What is the path of a planet round the sun?
Planets orbit the Sun in an elliptical path. This path is determined by the gravitational pull of the Sun on the planet, causing it to move in an elliptical orbit. The orbit is maintained due to a balance between the planet's inertia and the gravitational force of the Sun.
What point in a planet's orbit is closest to the sun?
The perihelion is the closest point to the Sun in the orbit of a planet.It is different for each planet based on the elliptical variation, but will always occur at the same point in each orbit.
