If you mean a space orbit--an object that moves fast enough can orbit another body in space. As a minimum, to orbit the Earth you need to travel 30,000 kph at 100 km altitude.
If you mean an atomic orbit, the combination of electron charge, nucleus charge, and quantum mechanics determines its orbits. An orbit is formed by orbiting when it is traveling in a circular or nearly circular path around another object.

What causes the moon to orbit the sun?
Nothing does.Simply because the moon does not orbit the sun.The moon orbits Earth, not the sun. And Earth orbits the sun.Gravity is what causes planets and moons to orbit.
What causes that the varying length of daylight through the year?
The Earth tilting on its axis as it orbits the Sun, causes the changing of the seasons in the northern and southern hemispheres. This also alters the lengths of the darkness and daylight.
Can the moon orbit around the sun?
No, the moon orbits around the Earth, not the sun. This is due to the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon. The moon's orbit around the Earth is what causes its phases and affects tides on Earth.
What is the possessive form for orbits?

What causes the differences in the moon's appearance?
the shadow of the earth as the moon orbits around it.
Newton learned that the orbits of planets are the result of what two forces?
Newton learned that the orbits of planets are the result of the gravitational force between the planet and the Sun, which causes the planet to move in an elliptical orbit, and the planet's inertia, which causes it to continue moving in a straight line.
What action causes day and night the earth orbits the sun or Earth rotates on its axis?
The earth rotates on its axis.
What causes the apparent changes of the moon's shape?
The variations in how much reflected sunlight we see as the Moon orbits Earth.
What causes the apparent repeated changes of the Moon's shape?
The variations in how much reflected sunlight we see as the Moon orbits Earth.

What Causes Uranus and Neptune's orbits to wobble?
The wobbling of Uranus and Neptune's orbits is primarily influenced by gravitational interactions with other planets in the solar system, primarily Jupiter and Saturn. These interactions cause periodic variations in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune over long periods of time.
How does the sun and the moon move across the earth?
umm... the sun does't move but the earth orbits the sun once a year and it rotates on its axis once every 24 hours this causes night and day. The moon orbits the earth i think :)
Can the moon orbit around the sun?
No, the moon orbits around the Earth, not the sun. This is due to the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon. The moon's orbit around the Earth is what causes its phases and affects tides on Earth.
