All planets orbit around the sun because the sun is the main gravity pull in the whole solar system. If the sun was not in the solar system then all the planets would just drift away. Also if the sun was not around then there would be no warmth on any planets.

Which object in space has the greatest effect on the solar system?
Within our own solar system, the sun, Sol, has the greatest effect on the rest of the system. Outside of our system, objects with great effect on us include the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, other galaxies, the singularity trace where the Big Bang first occurred, roughly the "Center of the Universe," and space itself.
Why is the sun considered the center of the solar system?
The sun has the majority of the mass in the solar system. Gravitational attraction varies directly as the magnitude of the mass. The sun therefore has the greatest gravitational effect in the solar system.
What Galileo discovery provided the greatest evidence that the sun must be at the center of the solar system?
The sun has rings (I think)
Why do they call your system a solar system?
Its called a solar system because its a system around the sun and the sun is a solar thingamacbob
Which is the largest star in the solar system?
the sun is. It is also the ONLY star in THIS solar system.
What accounts for the sun's tremendous gravitational pull on all of the other object in the solar system and makes it the center of the solar system?
The sun has the majority of the mass in the solar system. Gravitational attraction varies directly as the magnitude of the mass. The sun therefore has the greatest gravitational effect in the solar system.
Where is most of the mass in the solar system and what effect does this have?
Most of the mass of the solar system is in the sun. As a consequence all objects in the solar system orbit the sun.
Which object in space has the greatest effect on the solar system?
Within our own solar system, the sun, Sol, has the greatest effect on the rest of the system. Outside of our system, objects with great effect on us include the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, other galaxies, the singularity trace where the Big Bang first occurred, roughly the "Center of the Universe," and space itself.
What object in our solar system has the greatest gravitational field?
the sun

What other object in your solar system has effect on the tides?
Besides the Moon, the Sun has an effect.
Which cycle has the greatest effect on weather?
Sun spots, solar flares, coronal mass injections, solar energetic particles
How does the solar system effect the water cycle?
the sun evaporates the water
What planet had the Greatest distance to travel around the sun?
Within our Solar System, Neptune, the furthest planet from the Sun has the greatest distance to travel.
What does the sun do for your solar system?
Our sun is not in a binary solar system. A binary system has two sun at it center. One could speculate the effect if Jupiter had developed into a sun, turning our system into a binary. The Earth would no longer be suitable for life.
What Galileo discovery provided the greatest evidence that the sun must be at the center of the solar system?
The sun has rings (I think)
What greatest factors in the atmosphere seem to have the greatest effect on the amount of radiation received from the sun?
The ozone layer has the greatest effect on the amount of ultraviolet radiation received at the earth's surface from the Sun. Cloud formation and atmospheric thickness, in combination with solar angle, have the greatest effect on the amount of visible and infrared radiation received at the earth's surface from the sun
