The sun spins.
The gas giants, the four planets farthest from the Sun, do spin faster than the inner planets. However, rotational speed has almost nothing to do with the distance a planet is from the sun. Having said that, both the Sun and the Moon are responsible for the tides of the oceans which are still slowing the Earth down ever so slightly. The extremely slow rotation of Venus would have had other causes. The rotational speeds of planets are the product of 4½ billion years of events. The angular momentum of the protostellar disc would have been transferred to growing planets. In the case of the gas giants, the tidal effects at their great distance from the Sun are extremely small compared to their masses. So they are still spinning vigorously. Even Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun, is not rapidly losing its spin.
Venus and Uranus are the two planets that spin backwards compared to the majority of the planets in our solar system. Venus rotates in the opposite direction to its orbit around the Sun, while Uranus is tilted on its side, causing its rotational axis to be nearly parallel to its orbit.
The planets orbit the Sun. The Sun is at the center of our solar system and does not move.
It means they spin. They turn in space, pivoting around an invisible axis that runs from pole to pole through each planet. Different planets spin at different speeds, and their spins are not perfectly aligned with their orbits (revolution) around the Sun. The spin or rotation of the Earth is what makes the Sun appear to move across the sky.
The question probably means "What keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun?" The answer to that is : The Sun's gravitational attraction provides the force needed to keep the planets in orbit. This force doesn't pull the planets any closer to the Sun, but it stops the planets moving away (at a tangent to their orbits) due to their own velocities.
Because It Has To Spin Like Planets Do
The center of the galaxy.
no
Because there's nothing stopping them spinning.
All planets spin on their axes as well as orbiting the Sun.
The sun doesn't move across the night sky but the earth and all planets of the sky do.when we circle around the sun it just looks like it movesI.F
no, all planets spin and all planets in our solar system revolve around the sun.
The spin of the Earth is residual from the formation of the solar system. The original "whirlpools" of matter started to spin as they orbited the sun due to the Coriolis force acting on them. This caused them to spin around the planets. his spin stayed after the planets firmed up into discrete balls

It is called the solar system, and includes the Sun, planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, and comets. It extends much farther than the farthest planets, but not as far as the other nearby stars.
Because the sun is responsible for everything in the Solar system the planets lie on the suns equatorial line and still spin like they did before the planets formed.All the planets go around the sun the same way and lie on a relatively flat plane because of gravity. This is just a theory.
