What is the difference between a bound orbit and an unbound orbit around the Sun?
A bound orbit is a closed path around the Sun where an object is gravitationally bound to the Sun, like the planets in our solar system. An unbound orbit is when an object travels past the Sun once and does not return, like a comet that enters the solar system from afar and leaves after its close approach to the Sun.
What term means the path an object takes as it revolves around the sun?
The term for the path an object takes as it revolves around the sun is called an orbit.
What is the orbital far point?
The orbital far point, or aphelion, is the point in an object's orbit around the sun where it is farthest away from the sun. This is in contrast to the perihelion, which is the point in the orbit where the object is closest to the sun.
What is the path of an orbit around a larger object called?
Orbit: as in the Earth orbits round the Sun.
What do you call it when something goes around the sun?
This is an orbit. Sometimes, people say the object revolves around the sun, or it orbits the sun.

The term for the path an object takes as it revolves around the sun is called an orbit.
Is the sun an orbit?
No, the sun is an object. A fairly ordinary star. An orbit is the closed circular path taken by an object around another object. The suns orbit is the path it takes around the galactic centre. A journey of some 250 million years to complete one orbit. In comparison the earths orbit around the sun takes one year.
What object does the moon and earth orbit around?
The sun.
What is the most distant object to orbit the sun?
uranus
What can you draw about the properties of a planet just by knowing how far from the sun it is?
Well, the speed of it's orbit in relation to the other planets orbiting the same sun. The closer an object is to the sun the faster it's orbit. Conversely, the farther an object is from the sun the slower it's orbit.
What is the sun and the object that orbits around it?
The sun is a star and planets and asteroids orbit it.
Orbit in a sentence?
The proper orbit has not yet been attained. The Earth will orbit the Sun about once every 365 days.
What is the orbital far point?
The orbital far point, or aphelion, is the point in an object's orbit around the sun where it is farthest away from the sun. This is in contrast to the perihelion, which is the point in the orbit where the object is closest to the sun.
How does it move around the sun?
For object to orbit around the Sun, it required gravitation force from mass of the Sun in balance with centripetal force from velocity of the object. If the gravitation force is too strong then the object would pull down to the sun and if the centripetal force is too great then the object would escape from the orbit.
What are the icy object with the large tail that orbit the sun?
Comets
What is the path of an orbit around a larger object called?
Orbit: as in the Earth orbits round the Sun.
