An orbit
It is called an orbit. A comet has an eccentric or parabolic orbit.
The path of a comet around the sun would depend on its mass, speed, and trajectory. It a comet enters the sun's gravitational field at the correct trajectory and speed, it would fall into a roughly circular orbit.
It means a path travelled by a planet, asteroid, meteor or a comet which goes around the sun once.
gravity pulls it towards the large object
The scientific name for the path of a planet around the sun is an orbit. The shape of this path can be an ellipse, with the sun located at one of the foci of the ellipse.
The path where a planet moves around the sun is called an orbit.
The path that the Earth takes around the sun is called its orbit.
The force that keeps a comet in orbit around a larger celestial body, like the sun, is gravity. The gravitational pull between the comet and the larger body keeps the comet moving in a curved path around it.
