What is the movement of earth and the other eight planets around the sun?
The most common type of orbit is a circle but depending on the size, mass, density of that planet and the orbit of others but the orbit so far found by Astromoners and Scientists alike are all circle based.In there title don't you mean What is the movement of earth and the other eight seven planets and many dwarf planets around the sun?
Which planet has an orbit that is closest to a perfect circle?
The earth's orbit is almost a circle, but not quite. It is elliptical, but the difference between the closest and farthest points is less than 4%. This is such a small difference that it would look like a circle to most people. Astronomy books often show misleadingly exagerated elliptical orbits.
What planet is most circular orbit of any of the planets?
Probably Venus, who's orbit varies only imperceptibly from a perfect circle. Venus's orbit is elliptical, but not so the average layman would notice (to astronomers, of course, it is quite different).
What type of orbit do the planets have to revolve around the sun?
According to Keplers first law of 1618 which has not been repealed yet, the planets each move in an elliptical orbit with the Sun occupying one focus. The shape of an ellipse is described by the eccentricity. For low eccentricity such as the planets' orbits have, the orbit is very close to being a circle but the most significant difference is that the Sun is off-centre.
Which planet has most elliptical orbit?
Mars has the most elliptical orbit. The earth's is almost a perfect circle
What are the planets has the most elliptical and tilted orbit?
None of the planets orbit the sun perfectly in a circle, there is a degree of deviation from this perfect circle called eccentricity. The higher the eccentricity (more more the eccentric the orbit is) the further away from this perfect circle the orbit is. The planet that deviates most from a perfect circle, having the highest eccentricity, is Neptune. Neptune also has the highest axial tilt, tilted over onto its side as it orbits the sun.
Which shape is most like the shape of planets orbit?
in a oval shape not really a circle ANSWER:OVAL
What geometry shape is the most like a planets orbit?
An ellipse.
Do most asteroids orbit in the same direction as planets?
Yes asteroids orbit the sun counter-clockwise, just like all the planets
Are the moons as old as the planets that they circle?
In most cases, the moons are about as old as the planets they orbit, perhaps slightly younger. Most objects in the solar system formed when the solar system did.
What is mercury's orbit of the sun?
its orbit is not perfect circle, but is most eccentric of all planets,having eccentricity of 0.21 eccentricity means,the amount by which its orbit varies from perfect circle. 0 means circle and 1 means parabola. so mercury's eccentricity(0.21) is between circle and parabola, in fact, more closer to circle

An oval like shape that is used to describe the orbit of planets?
Mars, and all the other planets, have oval-shaped, or eliptical, orbits.
How are the planets held in orbit?
Most people don't think this but planets are actually held in orbit by gravity. With out gravity the planets will fall down.
Do all planets has moon?
No, they don't. But most of our planets that orbit the sun do.
