What are moving stars?
Planets; from 'Planetes,' or 'Wanderers.'
Why do planets keep on orbiting the sun?
They are held by the gravitational pull of the sun. All the planets and things like asteroids and comets are all within the influence of the sun's gravity.Additional answerBut the reason they go on moving is that there is nothing to stop them. On Earth things stop moving because of friction, but in space there is no friction so, according to Newton's 1st Law of Motion which says that a body will continue in its state of motion unless acted on by an external force, the planets just go on.
How are the planets held in their orbit?
Planets are held in their orbits around the Sun by gravity. The gravitational pull from the Sun keeps the planets moving in their elliptical paths. This balance between the planet's velocity and the gravitational force from the Sun keeps them in a stable orbit.
What celestial object moves backwards among stars?
The celestial object that appears to move backwards among the stars is a planet in retrograde motion. This happens when a faster-moving planet "laps" a slower-moving outer planet from the viewpoint of Earth, causing it to look like it is moving backwards relative to the fixed stars in the sky.
Why were planets called 'planets'?
The term "planet" is derived from the Greek word "planetes," which means "wanderer." In ancient times, planets were described as moving stars compared to the fixed stars in the sky. This is why they were called planets.
What happens if the planets stop orbiting the sun?
The planets will fall into the sun and get destroyed.
What happens when there is no stop time for a moving object?
When there is no stop time for a moving object, it will continue to move indefinitely without slowing down or coming to a stop.
What happens when a gas reaches its lowest temperature?
The molecules of the gas will stop moving.
What happens to moeecules at absolute 0?
They stop moving (with relation to each other).
What happens when a motorcycle seizes up?
The parts would be rusted and stop it moving. What are you asking?
What happens to the molecules if they freeze?
well obviously atoms cant stop moving even at absolute 0. so the molecules will simply slow down but it can never stop moving
What happens to motor if too much oil is in it?
the crank shaft whips the oil into a froth… the froth does not lubricate the moving parts… the moving parts try to stop moving… the end
When planets are closer to the sun how are they moving?
They are moving in an elliptical orbit
Why do planets continue to move?
Great question ... because the answer is so important to understand.Our common experience in daily life is: A moving object, with no forces acting on it, stops.The fact is: A moving object, with no forces acting on it, keeps going,with constant speed and in the same direction.The answer to the question is:The planets continue to move (and spin) because there is no forceacting on them to cause them to stop moving (or spinning).
Are you moving around the sun or it is the sun that moves around the planets?
The planets are considered moving around the sun, even though the sun moves too (in tiny circles opposite the planets' motions). The planets are circling the sun. The sun (dragging the planets along with it) is circling our galaxy's center. Our galaxy (dragging the sun, the planets, and all the other stars) is moving through the universe as well.
What happens when you taser a big fish?
Doesn't do much just makes them stop moving for a sec. but the fish still live.
Do fish die if they stop moving?
Fish do not die when they stop moving. Infact, they sleep NOT moving.
