The sun is a roughly spherical shape due to its internal gravitational forces pulling it into a balanced form. The Earth and other planets in our solar system are also approximately spherical in shape, a result of their own gravitational forces acting over time. However, it's important to note that the planets are not perfect spheres, as they can be slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator due to their rotation.
SOLAR SYSTEM: Sun - Mercury - Venus - Earth - Mars - Jupiter - Saturn, Uranus... and so on
The earth orbits the sun between the planets Venus and Mars. The other five planets are farther out than Mars. The closest earth gets to Venus is 23.7 million miles. The closest earth gets to Mars is 36.4 million miles.
it is a planet and it has a similar shape like the rest of the planets.
In the solar system, Earth is the third planet from the sun. Venus is the second planet from the sun. The distance between Venus and the Earth varies as both the planets orbit the sun. For example, the closest the two planets are to each other as they are orbiting is about 42 million kilometres, yet the furthest away these two planets are from each other is about 258 million kilometres.
because gravity and inertia are kinda of playing a game of tug a war but both sides are equal so they do not move
sphere
the sun earth and the remaining planets are roughly spherical in shape.
Yes, the sun's gravitational pull is what keeps Earth and the other planets in our solar system in orbit around it. This gravitational force is what maintains the planets' paths and prevents them from moving off into space.
The Sun and its planets are all basically spheres. The earth is an 'oblate sphere' - that it, it is flattened at the poles.
earth and all the other planets
Earth and the other planets are mostly made of rock.

Yes, the Earth and other planets in our solar system revolve around the Sun in elliptical orbits due to the force of gravity. This orbital motion is what causes the planets to move in their respective paths around the Sun.
The SHAPE of the orbit the Earth and most planets and other bodies of mass in space are usually elliptical.
The Sun, Earth and other planets, along with many other items are part of a Solar System.
The actual shape of the earth's orbit around the sun is horrendously complicated. Partly because the earth does not orbit the sun and also because the orbit is influenced by the the gravitational attraction of the other planets. The earth does not orbit the sun: the centre of mass of the earth-sun system is at one of the foci of an ellipse whose eccentricity is 0.0167. The eccentricity varies from 0.0034 to 0.058.
Without the planets orbiting the sun all the planets would be cold and dark
