It does. To a greater or less extent. All the planets are moving away from the sun within our galaxy, due to the ever lasting impact of The Big Bang, over 14 billion years ago, even to the extent that the moon is moving away from Earth one and a half inch every year.Hence, the pulling effect is way too less as compared to the pushing effect.

What keeps the planets in orbit around the sun?
Gravity, combined with the velocities of the planets, keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun.Gravity between any body, such as a planet, and the Sun is one factor. Also the planet has a velocity. These two things combine to keep the planet in orbit around the Sun.Gravitation. The suns gravitational pull. The huge mass of the sun means it has a huge gravitational pull, keeping all of the planets in place. There is also the planets velocity that would take the planet away from the sun if there was no gravity, so these two forces act against each other.
Does gravity pull on planets?
the rule of gravity is the greater mass a planet is the stronger its gravitational pull is so the suns mass is so heavy that its gravitational pull is so strong it keeps all the planets in line
Does the sun have any moons?
no its doesnt have any moons. because its to hot for it but they consider the planets to be the suns moons
What keeps the planets and sun in orbit?
The question probably means "What keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun?" The answer to that is : The Sun's gravitational attraction provides the force needed to keep the planets in orbit. This force doesn't pull the planets any closer to the Sun, but it stops the planets moving away (at a tangent to their orbits) due to their own velocities.
Why do planets in the solar system remain in circular orbits around the sun?
Because the sun is the biggest thing in our universe, so it has the largest gravitational pull on other objects. Once that object gets into the sun's gravitational pull, the object will orbit the sun. Just like the planets. I know, IT IS A HARD CONCEPT TO GRASP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What type of force provided by the suns gravity keeps the planets in orbit?
the gravititonal pull does; it is what keeps all the planet in the suns orbit xx
What type of force keeps the sun and planets in there places?
the suns gravitational pull pulls them toward it but the planets try to escape its gravity
Did Kepler say that it was the pull of the suns gravity that kept the planets in orbit?
No. Kepler proposed that some force kept the planets in orbit, but did not know or say what that force was. It was Isaac Newton who figured out that this force is gravity.
Does the suns gravity keep the planets in orbit around it?
Yeah
What is the force that keeps planet in orbit?
the suns gravity keeps the planets in orbit
What would happen if the suns gravity did not pull the planets tword it?
The planets would no longer follow their orbital paths around the Sun. They would move away from the Sun and travel in straight lines.
What keeps the planets in your solar system?
The suns gravitational pull.
What are the 2 forces that keep planets orbiting suns?
gravity and inertia
How does the suns gravitational pull affect the speed which the planets orbit?
When the pull is stronger, they move quicker.
How does the suns gravitational pull affect the speed at which planets orbit?
When the pull is stronger, they move quicker.
How do the planets of our solar system orbit the sun?
The Suns gravitational pull.
What prevent the planets from flying off into space?
The easy answer is gravity. The pull of a star's gravity keeps the planets in orbit in almost equal amounts of centripetal force pulls them away.============================================Another contributor clarified:The answer is 'gravity'. The more massive the body, the more gravity it has."Centripetal force" is any force that pulls awayof the path, such as swinging around a weight attached to a string. The faster you spin it, the heavier it seems to become.
