When does Jupiter travel most slowly around the sun?
Jupiter is not the slowest, but it is a lot slower than Earth. Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun. The time taken for a planet to orbit the Sun increases with distance from the Sun. There are two reasons : 1) The size of its orbit gets bigger. 2) The planet moves more slowly. This follows from the mathematics of Newton's gravitation theory.
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 happens when a planet moves closer to the sun?
That planet will move faster in its orbit.
The speed of a planet in its elliptical orbit around the sun?
The path that planets take around the sun is called it's orbit. The gravitation pull of the sun keeps each planet in it's orbit. Each planets orbit varies in the time it takes to make one trip around the sun.
What planet does Miranda orbit around?
The planet Uranus.
He planet that moves most slowly along its orbit is?
pluto... :)
What planet moves in an elliptical orbit around the sun?
All of them do.
Why the planet move around the orbit?
the planet moves around the orbit because it is heavy and strong enough to pull its self in a circle around the sun. Thanks!:)

When you say a satellite is orbiting a planet you mean what?
It means that it moves around the planet, along a path (orbit) that has the shape of an ellipse.

What is the location of Mercury?
Mercury is the planet closest to the Sun. As Mercury rotates slowly on its axis about once every 59 Earth days, it moves in an elliptical or oval-shaped orbit around the Sun, faster than any other planet.
When Neptune orbits around the Sun is it faster or slower than earth?
Neptune moves more slowly than Earth. The farther a planet is from the Sun, the longer its orbit. But the lesser gravity of the Sun at longer distances means that the planets also do not need to move as rapidly in their orbits. A planet farther from the Sun moves more slowly than one closer to the Sun.
Each planet moves in a different orbit and at a different?
Each planet moves in a different orbit, at a different average distance from the sun, and at a different speed.
Which planet moves the most slowly in its orbit?
Of the major planets, Neptune. The speed of planets in their orbits is directly related to their distance from the sun. The farther a planet is from the Sun, the slower its orbital speed.
What is the name of the path of where all planets move around the Sun?
The path where a planet moves around the sun is called an orbit.
