What else can I help you with?
The plantes and other objects that orbit the sun are called constllations or a solar sysrem?
Planets and other objects that orbit the sun are part of a solar system, whereas constellations are patterns of stars as seen from Earth. So, the correct term is a solar system for planets and objects orbiting the sun.
Are planets objects?
Yes, planets are astronomical objects that orbit a star, have sufficient mass for their self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that they assume a nearly round shape, and have cleared their orbit of other debris.
Do outer planets have dwarf planets?
No. Planets do not have dwarf planets. A planet-sized object orbiting a larger planet is a moon. Dwarf planets orbit the sun independent of other objects.
What keeps the planets and other solar system objects in orbit around the sun?
The force of gravity is what keeps planets and other objects in orbit around the sun, along with the angular momentum of the planets and objects. Without gravity, they would just fly away into space, and without angular momentum, they would just fall into the sun. But both of those together produce orbital motion.
What is it called when two planets switch orbit?
planets dont "switch" orbit, but there are those that orbit each other, and those, like mars, that have retrograde motion, which makes it appear to orbit backwards
What is made up of eight planets and other objects that orbit the sun?
This is called the solar system
What is a path in which planets and other objects travel?
Orbit
What makes up the eight planets and numerous other objects that orbit the sun?
That is called the Solar System.
The plantes and other objects that orbit the sun are called constllations or a solar sysrem?
Planets and other objects that orbit the sun are part of a solar system, whereas constellations are patterns of stars as seen from Earth. So, the correct term is a solar system for planets and objects orbiting the sun.
What is the position and relationship of the planets and other objects to the sun?
You have to orbit around
What is a name for the eight planets and other objects that orbit the sun is?
In order the planets and objects are:MercuryVenusEarthMarsAsteroid BeltJupiterSaturnUranusNeptunePluto (It's a dwarf planet)
The eight large objects that orbit the sun are called?
They are called planets. They are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. In addition there are many other objects orbiting the Sun.
Does each of the eight planets in our solar system have its own orbit?
Yes, each of the 8 major planets has its own orbit, with no asteroids or other objects in its path.
How come planets orbit the sun but not others?
If you mean "why don't they orbit other objects in our Solar System", the Sun has most of the mass in our Solar System.
Are all planets affected by the sun?
All planets and other objects in the solar system orbit the Sun because of its gravity.
Do moons orbit anything other than planets?
A moon is an object larger than about 50 miles across, which orbits a planet. Objects which orbit stars are called either planets, of if they are small, asteroids, or comets. So a moon does not orbit anything other than a planet.
Is it true that a star with its orbiting planets is the solar system?
Yes, the solar system consists of a large central star (called the sun for our solar system), with planets that ore in orbit around it. There are other bodies in orbit around the sun also, such as minor planets, asteroids, comets, and other small objects.
