The orbit of Venus is the most circular in the entire Solar System. In mathematical terms, the eccentricity of Venus is less than 0.01. A year on Venus lasts 223 days.
As Venus travels around the Sun, it ranges in distance from 107 million km to 109 million km. The average distance is 108 million km. This is 72% the distance of Earth to the Sun ...
Venus can get as close as 40 million km from the Earth. This is called an inferior conjunction every 584 days, on average ...
One of the most unusual things about Venus is that it rotates backwards from the rest of the planets in the Solar System. Seen from above, all of the planets rotate counter-clockwise, but Venus turns clockwise. Of course, Venus orbits so slowly that its day is actually longer than its year. A day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days, while its year is 224.7 Earth days

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 holds planets and moons in orbit?
The Sun`s gravity holds all the planets in orbit in space.The gravitational attraction from our Sun.
How long does it take Io to orbit the Sun?
Io, one of the moons of Jupiter, takes about 42 hours to orbit Jupiter. Jupiter takes close to 4 332 days to orbit the Sun. So, for practical terms you may consider that Io will take the same time as Jupiter to orbit the Sun: 4 332 days, or a little longer than 11 years and 10 months at Earth´s time.
What is the centripetal acceleration of the Earth in its orbit around the Sun?
.005946 m/s/s
What s earth's annual motion around the sun called?
This is known as an orbit. An orbit consists of 365 days, which is a year in our calendar.
How fast does venus orbit per second?
Venus orbits the Sun at about 35.02 km/s or 126,072 kmh (78,337.5 mph)
How fast can Venus move?
Being 2nd closest to the Sun, Venus is a speedy planet. It orbits the Sun at an average speed of 78,335 miles per hour (21.76 miles/second - 35.02 km/s).
How fast does venus travel around the sun?
224.7 earth days or you can say 225 earth days

Which planet has the highest temperatures?
Venus has the highest surface temperature, even hotter than Mercury.
What objects orbit around the sun and it start off with a s?
The planet Saturn

M and V are the P nearest the S?
Mars and Venus are the planets nearest the Sun.
Why dont eclipses happen twice a month?
Eclipses would happen twice a month if the moon's orbit were in the same plane as the Earth's orbit around the sun. The moon's orbit is slightly tilted, so eclipses are less frequent. The plane of the moon´s orbit is inclined 5 degrees to the plane of the earth´s orbit around the sun. this being the case the moon´s orbit interesects the plane of the ecliptic at two different points (nodes). when one of these nodes is lined up with the sun and the moon passes through one of these nodes there is a solar eclipse. if the moon is at it´s apogee when this happens we have what´s called an annular eclipse because the moon´s disc does not completely block out the disc of the sun. when the moon is at there is a total eclipse.
