What two forces work together to keep the planets in orbit around the sun?

The two forces that work together to keep the planets in orbit around the sun are gravity and inertia.


What is another name for inner planets?

Another name for inner planets is terrestrial planets. These are the planets that are closer to the Sun and have rocky surfaces.


What is the orbit of the sun due to gravity?

The planets' gravity on the Sun is insignificant, compared to the Sun's mass; so, within the Solar System, it is (basically) the planets that orbit around the Sun.On the other hand, the Sun - together with all the planets - orbits around the center of the Milky Way (our galaxy).The planets' gravity on the Sun is insignificant, compared to the Sun's mass; so, within the Solar System, it is (basically) the planets that orbit around the Sun.On the other hand, the Sun - together with all the planets - orbits around the center of the Milky Way (our galaxy).The planets' gravity on the Sun is insignificant, compared to the Sun's mass; so, within the Solar System, it is (basically) the planets that orbit around the Sun.On the other hand, the Sun - together with all the planets - orbits around the center of the Milky Way (our galaxy).The planets' gravity on the Sun is insignificant, compared to the Sun's mass; so, within the Solar System, it is (basically) the planets that orbit around the Sun.On the other hand, the Sun - together with all the planets - orbits around the center of the Milky Way (our galaxy).


What are two things that work together keeping planets in their orbits around the sun?

Gravity and the laws of motion, specifically Newton's laws of motion, work together to keep planets in their orbits around the sun. Gravity from the sun pulls the planets towards it, while the inertia of the planets moving in a straight line causes them to travel in an elliptical orbit around the sun.
