Best Answer

The earth travels around the sun in an orbit, because of the Continuity Condition . the balance of the centripetal force vp/r versus the centrifugal force cDel.P = -cp/r cos(PR). The centrifugal force is the Divergence of the vector energy cmV, the Momentum energy. The momentum energy cP is aka the inertia or "Dark Energy".

W = --mu/r + cP and

Force =XW = [d/dr, Del][ -mu/r, cP] = [vp/r - cDel.P, cdP/dr - Del mu/r + cDelxP]


The tangent force is cdmV/dr = mdV/dt; the Gradient force is muR/r^3 and the circular force is the curl, cDelxP. The curl is the orbit force.

because of the gravitational pull of the sun on earth is so strong it keeps it close and also because of inertia
