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.

The suns gravitational pull causes the earth and other planets to the sun?

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.

Does the earth and other planets revolve around the sun?

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.

What is the actual shape of the Earths orbit around the Sun?

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.


Why does earth and all other planets orbit the sun?
