Why would the sun move even though its velocity is set a zero when a planet revolves around it?

The sun moves because not only do the earths orbit the sun,but the sun orbits the planets as well in its own way.What i am talking about is that planets have mass like the sun so the sun is orbiting their mass little by little.

Does an artificial satellite rotate in its own axis or does it just revolve around the planet?
A Planet rotates on it axis.(For Earth, the axis of rotation runs between the North and South Poles.)Planets orbit the sun.Planets are in orbit around the Sun.Planets revolve around the sun.Planets revolve on their axis of rotation.So, the point is that it is sloppy to just say a planet rotates or revolves and one should specify the axis relative to which one is discussing rotation or revolution.Orbits, are pretty clear though.
Why weren't Ceres considered a planet?
Ceres is not considered a planet, since it does not dominate its orbit. There are other sizable objects at that distance from the sun, in orbit around the sun. It is a dwarf planet though.
What is an artificial planet?
I suppose like an artificial satellite it's a planet that is made by man and goes around the sun/parent star. That isn't a term that I have ever heard before though.
What planet is bluish green planet and have ring?
Uranus, though its rings are faint.
What is earths apparent motion?
I guess that would be an earthquake. But what do I know. I think it is though.
Why can't we see what's behind the sun?
That's easy! Because our planet Earth revolves around the sun! and no matter where we are in space on Earth it is completely impossible to see AROUND it! THough there are probably just other planet and gas(stars)!
Why are some moons not considered planets though they are larger than Mercury?
Even though there are moons that are larger than Mercury, they are not classified as planets because they do not have their own orbit around the sun. They instead orbit around a planet as it revolves around the sun. This type of relationship is easily recognized from our own planet Earth with our own Moon. The Moon circles around us in cycles, hence we see different phases of the moon every night. If the Moon's revolution did not go around us and instead went around the sun, it would probably be classified as a dwarf planet such as Pluto.
How does the moon revolved around the sun?
The moon does not revolve around the sun. The moon revolves around the Earth though! kept in orbit by the earth's gravitational pull.

No, the moon does not revolve around the sun. The Earth does though. You might be getting confused because the moon revolves around the Earth.
What rotates the sun in one day?
Do you mean, "What revolves around the sun in one day?" or do you mean, "What rotates, so that the sun appears to go completely around in one day?" If you mean the second one, the answer is the earth, since our day is defined by what appears as though the sun were making a complete revolution. If you mean the first, I know of nothing that revolves around the sun in one earth day. Mercury, the closest planet, takes about 88 days to do it. Earth takes about a year.
Does Uranus the planet have rings around it?
Yes, at least 13. They are not very bright though.

Ceres is not considered a planet, since it does not dominate its orbit. There are other sizable objects at that distance from the sun, in orbit around the sun. It is a dwarf planet though.
What is planet has the most known moons?
Jupiter, it has 63 confirmed that are in a stable orbit around the planet. There could well be more than this though, which have yet to be discovered.
What planet has over 63 moons?
Jupiter has the most moons, 63 confirmed that are in a stable orbit around the planet. There could be more than this though, which have yet to be discovered.
How many moons of planet Jupiter?
Jupiter has 63 confirmed moons that are in a stable orbit around the planet. There could well be more than this though, which have yet to be discovered.
