Do the planets closest to the sun travel slowest in their orbits?
No, the closer a planet is to the sun, the faster it orbits.
What are slowest to fastest planet to orbit the sun?
Curiously, the nearer the planet is to the Sun the faster it orbits. Thus Mercury orbits the fastest, whereas Neptune is the slowest.
Kepler discovered that planets move faster when they?
Kepler discovered that planets move faster when they are closer to the sun in their elliptical orbits. This relationship is described by Kepler's second law of planetary motion, which states that a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times as it orbits the sun.
What planet is large body and orbits the sun?
The largest planet orbiting the sun is Jupiter.
The speed of a planet in its orbit around the Sun depends primarily on the planet's?
The speed of a planet in its orbit around the Sun primarily depends on the planet's distance from the Sun. Planets closer to the Sun move faster in their orbits compared to planets farther away due to the gravitational pull of the Sun. The mass of the planet also plays a minor role in determining its orbital speed.
What would be affected if a planet orbits the sun faster or slower?
The length of the planet's year would be affected.
Do the planets closest to the sun travel slowest in their orbits?
No, the closer a planet is to the sun, the faster it orbits.
What planet is lumpy rocky and orbits the sun faster that Mars but slower than Jupiter?
There is no planet which fits that description.
Why does mercury have a short year?
Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. According to Kepler's law of planetary motion, the nearer a planet is to the sun, the faster it orbits the Sun.
A small planet that orbits the sun?
Mercury, is the smallest planet that orbits the sun.
What is plutos orbital information?
pluto orbits around the sun faster than any planet
What is the biggest planet that orbits your sun?
Jupiter is the largest known planet which orbits the Sun.
Why is a moon not a planet?
A planet orbits a star such as the sun. A moon orbits a planet.
How fast does Jupiter go around the sun?
Jupiter orbits the sun in about 10 hours (600 minutes.) Jupiter is the fastest spinning planet. It orbits around the Sun over 100 thousand minutes faster than Earth. Jupiter orbits the Sun about 8750 minutes faster than Earth.
Does the earth orbit the planet?
No. Earth is a planet. It orbits the sun, which is a star.
What planet that orbits the sun and is the second biggest?
The planet that orbits the sun and is the second biggest is Saturn.
How is a moon different from a dwarf planet?
Generally, a dwarf planet orbits only the sun, whereas a moon orbits a planet, which in turn orbits a sun.
