What are forces that keep the moon in orbit around the earth?
Gravity keeps planets in orbit as it spins it creates gravity and gravitational pull keeps the a lined
Earth's orbit is not a circle is it?
No, all orbits are ellipses. That includes the Earth's orbit.
What causes the cycle of seasons in earth?
The tilt of the Earth's axis in relation to the plane of its orbit.
What two factores combiend to keep earth in oribit around the sun and the moon in orbit around the earth?
Only one force is required: gravity ... the gravitational attraction between the center of the earth and the center of the sun. If gravity were not at work, then the Earth would take off in a straight line, into deep space. And if another force were required, we'd be out of luck, since the gravitational attraction is the only force that exists.
Does changes in Earth's orbit effect Earth's climate?
yes
What is the force that makes it possible for Earth to orbit the Sun?
The force that makes it possible for Earth to orbit the Sun is gravity.
What is the name force that makes Earth orbit the sun?
Gravity.
How does the force of gravity from the earth affect the moon?
Gravity makes the Moon remain in orbit around Earth.
What makes the moon orbit?
The moon orbits Earth due to gravitational pull. This force of gravity keeps the moon in a stable orbit around Earth, with its motion governed by the balance between its inertia and the gravitational force pulling it towards Earth.
What is the force that makes satellites orbit at the same height around the earth?
Gravity keeps satellites in orbit. The closer you are to the Earth, the faster you have to go to maintain your orbit. At low Earth orbit, the altitude of the Space Station, you make an orbit every 90 minutes. At the Moon's distance you need over 27 days to go around the Earth. In-between there is an altitude which matches the rate of the Earth's rotation. Many satellites orbit at this altitude.
Is the force that makes an apple fall the same force that keeps the earth orbiting around the sun?
Yes - the same gravity that makes the apple fall from the tree - keeps the earth in orbit around the sun.
What force orbits around the earth?
No force orbits around the Earth. Forces do not orbit. The force that keeps material objects in orbit around the Earth is the mutual force of gravity between the Earth and the object.
What makes it possible for the Earth to orbit the Sun?
The Earth orbits the Sun due to the gravitational pull between the two objects. This gravitational force keeps the Earth in its elliptical path around the Sun, maintaining its orbit.
What makes the Earth orbit the Sun?
The Earth orbits the Sun due to the gravitational pull between the two objects. This gravitational force keeps the Earth moving in a curved path around the Sun, following its orbit.
What force keeps earth in orbit?
The gravitational force.
How does the centripetal force act on a satellite?
The centripetal force acts towards the center of the circular path followed by the satellite, allowing it to maintain its orbit. In the case of a satellite orbiting Earth, the force of gravity provides the centripetal force required to keep the satellite in its orbit.
What force is responsible for the moon orbiting around the earth and earth orbiting around the sun?
The force of gravity causes the moon to orbit the Earth, and the Earth to orbit the sun.
