What is mercury's inclination from the equator to its orbit?
1.5 macron
What is the comparison between Mercury's and Venus' orbits?
Mercury's orbit is moderately eccentric, at 0.2056, while Venus's orbit is the least eccentric of any planet in the solar system, at 0.0067. Mercury's inclination is at 7º, while Venus's is at 3.39º.
What is the best classification for a natural satellite?
Mainly classification of Satellite is as under 1:Structure 2:Orbit Shape 3:Orbit rotation 4:Orbit Inclination 5:Orbit Height 6:Function
Orbital inclination of Neptune?
The orbital inclination of the planet Neptune is 1.77 degrees. In comparison, the orbital inclination of the earth is 23.5 degrees.
What is the only planet whose orbit is significantly tilted with respect to the ecliptic?
The planet with the greatest inclination relative to the ecliptic is Mercury, at about seven degrees. This is over twice the inclination of any other planet (Venus comes in second at about 3.4 degrees), but even so it's not all that high: Pluto's inclination is over 17 degrees, one (of many) reasons a lot of people felt that calling it a planet was a One of These Things Is Not Like the Others situation.
What is the geosynchoronous orbit?
it is a low inclination orbit
Which planet has the greatest inclination of orbit to the ecliptic?
Mercury, with an inclination of 7 degrees.
What is Saturn orbit inclination?
2.5 degrees.
Which planet is used as the stander orbit for inclination of orbit?
For convenience, Earth's orbit is considered to be at 0 degrees inclination. All other planets' orbits are compared with Earth's orbital tilt.
What is mercury's inclination from the equator to its orbit?
1.5 macron
What planet has the greatest orbital inclination orbit at the greatest angle to that of the Earth?
mercury has the greatest orbital inclination
What is the the degree of the earths inclination?
The Earth's tilt, or inclination, or obliquity is about 23.44 degrees from the plane of its orbit around the Sun.
What are the two ways that satellites orbit the earth?
While there are two main ways a satellite can orbit: equatorial and polar; there are actually an infinite number of ways, depending on their orbital angle of inclination. Equatorial orbits have 0 degrees of inclination, polar orbits have 90 degrees of inclination. Satellites can also orbit forward or retrograde, but it is much harder to launch into retrograde orbits so the vast majority are in forward orbits.
Does the moon revolve on a axis?
Yes - the mean inclination of the lunar orbit to the ecliptic plane is 5.145°.
What are 2 factors that cause the pattern of seasons?
1) The annual orbit of the Earth round its star, the Sun. 2) The inclination of Earth's axis of spin to the plane of the orbit.
What planet orbits farthest from the ecliptic?
Mercury has the planetary orbit that has the greatest inclination to both the ecliptic and the invariable plane.
What planet has the least tilt at the axis?
Mercury's Inclination of it's equator to it's orbit is 0 degrees. The answer is Mercury
