A force called gravity.

∙ 12y agoThe gravitational pull of the sun keeps them in orbit and their moons (if they have any) are slowing down their rotation on their axes until they rotate at the same speed as each other like Pluto is already.
For the sake of curiosity Earth's moon is rotating the same speed as its orbit, and it will take twice the age of the solar system for the Earth's rotation to synch with the moon's orbit.

Do the planets move in their own imaginary path yes or no?
There path is not imaginary, so the answer is no.
in which path did all planets move around in which path did all the planets move around?
Each planet moves in its own elliptical orbit round the Sun, then and now.
Does each of the eight planets in our solar system have its own orbit?
Yes, each of the 8 major planets has its own orbit, with no asteroids or other objects in its path.
Why do the planets and their moons move around the sun but do not crush?
Their own gravity disables them to lose path in their orbit and makes their path steady.
Name the path on which planets travel?
The path on which planets travel is called their orbit.
What keeps the planets on their path?
The gravity of there star keeps them on path and a planets moon is sun around by its planets gravitational force
What do you call the path to the planets takes what keeps the planets on this path?
The path a planet takes is called an orbit.The planets are kept in orbit by the gravitational pull of the star (in our case the Sun) they orbit.
Does planets move in circular path instead of straight lines?
Planets rotate around the sun. The path is not really circular for planets, it is actually ellipsoidal.
What is the path planets travel?
Planets travel in elliptical orbits.
What si inertia of direction?
It is the abiltity of body to be in a state of direction of motion .for example sun holds planets in a fixed elliptical path .this is one of the example of inertia of direction.
Which object's gravity holds the planets in their orbits?
The sun's gravity holds the planets in their orbits. It also holds other space objects in their orbits, such as asteroids.
What force holds inner planets tightly to the sun?
Gravity :) (Gravity also holds the outer planets tightly to the Sun.)
