How do the orbital inclinations of the inner planets compare with those of the outer ones?

The inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) have relatively low orbital inclinations compared to the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune). The inner planets orbit the Sun in a more or less flat plane known as the ecliptic, while the outer planets have more inclined orbits relative to this plane.


What 2 planets have a faster orbital velocity than earth?

Any planets that are nearer to the sun than the earth is. The two known ones are Mercury and Venus.


What planets moon takes the shortest time to orbit?

the smallest planets moon probably because it has the least amount of way to go


How does the orbital velocity of the earth compare to the mercury?

Earth's average orbital velocity around the Sun is about 29.78 km/s, while Mercury, being closer to the Sun, has a higher average orbital velocity of approximately 47.87 km/s. This difference is primarily due to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, which state that planets closer to the Sun travel faster in their orbits. As a result, Mercury orbits the Sun more quickly than Earth.


What planets orbital speed is about 30 kilometers per second?

earth orbital speed is 30 kilometers per second!!


What planets year is 365 earth years?

A planet's year that is equivalent to 365 Earth days is Earth itself. Each planet has its own orbital period around the Sun, and Earth completes one full orbit in approximately 365.25 days, which is why we have leap years. Other planets have significantly longer or shorter orbital periods compared to Earth.


Will earth crash in to any other planets?

No. As of current known orbital data, the Earth will never be in a position to collide with another planet.


How does earth compare to the diameterof the outer planets?

The Earth's diameter of 8000 miles compares with 33,000-88,000 miles for the four outer planets.


What are the orbital characteristics of the planets?

The orbital characteristics of the planets in our solar system include their elliptical orbits, which vary in shape and size. Most planets orbit the Sun in a plane known as the ecliptic, with a slight tilt. The distance from the Sun affects their orbital period; for instance, Mercury has a short orbital period of about 88 Earth days, while Neptune takes about 165 Earth years to complete one orbit. Additionally, the planets generally move in the same direction around the Sun, with their orbits becoming more circular as the distance from the Sun increases.


What planet has the greatest orbital inclination orbit at the greatest angle to that of the Earth?

mercury has the greatest orbital inclination


Is mars closet to planet earth?

It depends. Which planet is closest to Earth depends on where each of the planets is in its orbit, the planets all have different orbital periods. At any given time the closest planet to Earth may be Mercury, Venus, or Mars. Of all the planets, Venus comes closest.


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.
