What happens when a planet moves closer to the sun?
That planet will move faster in its orbit.
The speed of a planet in its orbit around the Sun depends primarily on the planet's?
Distance from the Sun. (The closer it is, the faster it moves.)
What determines the path of a planet around the sun?
The orbit determines the path of a planet around the sun. The closer a planetâ??s orbit is to the Sun, the more rapid is the planetâ??s motion.
What happens to the earth orbit speed as it gets closer to the sun?
It increases.

Will a planet or comet be moving faster in its orbit when it is closer to or farther from the sun?
Planets and comets move faster when they are closer to the sun.
Will a planet or comet be moving faster in it orbit when it is farther from or closer to the sun?
Planets and comets move faster when they are closer to the sun.
What planet's orbit is so eccentric that at perihelion it is closer to the sun than Neptune?
Pluto - though its no longer classed as a planet, more a dwarf planet. For 20 years of its 246 year orbit, it is actually closer to the sun than Neptune
What determines the path of a planet around the sun?
The orbit determines the path of a planet around the sun. The closer a planetâ??s orbit is to the Sun, the more rapid is the planetâ??s motion.
Which planet would orbit around the sun the fastest?
The closer to the primary, the faster the orbit. Mercury is closest, and orbits the Sun in 88 days.
What is the definitions of elliptical orbit?
It means the planet (for example) goes around the Sun (for example) in an orbit that has the shape of an elipse. Informally, an elipse can be described as a stretched circle. The planet is sometimes closer to the Sun, sometimes it is farther away.It means the planet (for example) goes around the Sun (for example) in an orbit that has the shape of an elipse.
