At any particular orbital radius, there is only one velocity which will give stable orbit. An increase in velocity would increase the centripetal force, overcoming the gravitational pull, the net force then accelerating the object away from the sun.
>
Stable orbit:
(Gravity (G*m1*m2)/d2) = ( centripetal force (m2*(v2/d)) )
G = newtons gravitational constant
m1 = mass sun (kg)
m2 = mass object (kg)
d = distance between sun and object (metres)
v = orbital velocity (metres per second)
What else can I help you with?
What is the velocity of the moon as it orbits the Earth?
The velocity of the moon as it orbits the Earth is approximately 1 kilometer per second.
What is the largest object that orbits the sun?
Jupiter is the largest object that orbits the sun.
What is a natural or artificial object that orbits another object called?
any object, natural or artificial, that orbits another object is called a "satellite"
What are the factors that affect the length of an orbit?
Central accelerating force, in the case of an orbit this would be determined by the central mass. semi-major Radius of the orbit. eccentricity of the orbit. The value of the Gravitational constant. For a central mass reference these four are sufficient. If you consider a 'center of mass' reference however then the mass of the orbital is also required to determine the orbital characteristics.
What object that is covered with craters orbits the earth?
The moon and Luna are the object that is covered with craters orbits the earth
When an object orbits antoher object it?
goes around it.
What is an object that orbits another bigger object?
the answer is a sattelite
What kind of motion does a constant force produce on an object of fixed mass?
A constant force applied to an object of fixed mass will result in the object experiencing constant acceleration. This means the object will change its velocity at a constant rate in the direction of the applied force.
Does ganymede orbit Mercury?
No. Ganymede orbits Jupiter. No natural object orbits Mercury.
What is a small object that orbits the sun?
a planet
