What are the planets orbits?

The planets orbits are the routes or paths that the planets follow around our sun. One orbit is one trip around the sun (one year).


Is the orbit of each planet a ellipse?

All the planets have elliptical orbits but Uranus and Neptune have slightly different orbits than other planets on solar system.


What evidence do you have that the planets move in elliptical orbits around the sun and not in circular orbits?

Elliptical orbits of the planets around the sun actually match what we observe. Newton's Theory of Universal Gravitation states that planets will move around the sun in elliptical orbits.

What is the shape of a planets orbit and in which direction do all planets revolve?

Planetary orbits are eliptical, that is they are shaped as elipses. All planets revolve around the sun anti-clockwise as viewed from Earth's north pole.


Which planet orbits around the sun in backward direction from east to west?

No planet does this. You probably mean the planet that ROTATES on its axis in an east to west direction. The answer is Venus. Uranus also does this, but with an extreme axial tilt.

How is Earth's orbit around the sun similar to the orbits of other planets around the sun?
