What is it called When a planet's orbit takes it closer to the sun?
revolution
Is the equator the closest point to the sun?
no
Which planet has the shortest year revolution around the sun?
Since Mercury is the closest planet, it travels around the sun in the shortest amount of time. A year on Mercury equals 88 days.
When a planet is closest to the sun in its orbit?
Closest point is called the perihelion; furthest from sun is aphelion.
When will a planet travel fastest in its orbit?
The earth is moving fastest in its orbit at the moment of perihelion, when it is closest to the sun. the happens around January 3.
What is it called When a planet's orbit takes it closer to the sun?
revolution
What is the point closest to the sun?
If you're referring to the orbit of the Earth around the Sun, the closest point is called the perihelion and it usually comes between the 2nd and 4th of January each year.
What point in a planets oribits is closest to the sun?
perihelion is the point in a planets orbit when it is closest to the sun
Is the sun point the poit of the planet closest to the sun?
no, it is not a planet the closest is merkury
What is the point in which the earth is closest to the sun?
It is the earth's perihelion or, less conventionally, the sun's perigee.
What is the point of the planet Mercury closest to the sun?
Mercury rotates (slowly) as it orbits the Sun. So, the point that's closest to the Sun changes with time.
Is the equator the closest point to the sun?
no

What is The point at which the planet is closest to the sun to its orbit is called?
The closest point to the Sun in a planet's orbit is called perihelion. The furthest point is called aphelion. Phil
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.
What is perihelion?
Planets orbit stars in elipses, or elliptical orbits, which means their orbit around the star is an oval shape, as opposed to a circle. That means that at one point they will be closest to the star, and at another point they will be the farthest. Perihelion is when the planet is closest to the star, so the perihelion date is the date of which the planet is closest to the star.
