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 keeps the earth in orbit around the sun and moon in orbit around earth?

The force of gravity and the inertia of the Earth (as it orbits the Sun). Also, gravity combined with the inertia of the Moon (as it orbits the Earth).

The Earth orbits around the sun because the gravitational force that the sun exerts on the Earth?

Yes, the Earth orbits around the sun due to the gravitational force exerted by the sun. This force keeps the Earth moving in a curved path around the sun, preventing it from simply moving in a straight line out into space.


How is the earth and moon orbit different?

The Earth orbits around the Sun, while the moon orbits around the Earth.


What force keeps the moon revolving around the Earth What force keeps the earth revolving around the sun?

The gravitational force between the Earth and the Moon is what keeps the Moon in orbit around the Earth. Similarly, the gravitational force between the Earth and the Sun is responsible for the Earth's orbit around the Sun. In both cases, these gravitational attractions provide the necessary centripetal force to maintain the orbits of these celestial bodies.


How does the sun orbits oroung the moon?

The sun does not orbit around the moon. The earth orbits the sun and the earths moon (every planet has 1 or more moons) orbits earth.


What helps the moon to orbit around the earth?

Moon gets attracted to the earth's gravity. But this is neutralized by the centrifugal force which pushes it outwards. This is how moon orbits around the earth without colliding into it.


What does the moon have?

the sun stays still the earth ROTATES and orbits while the earth ORBITS on its AXIS it turns around till it is dark and the moon orbits around the earth.

When Earth orbits the Sun what is the centripetal force?

When Earth orbits the Sun, the centripetal force acting on it is provided by the gravitational attraction between the Earth and the Sun. This gravitational force keeps the Earth in its elliptical orbit, constantly pulling it toward the Sun. The balance between this gravitational force and the Earth's inertia, due to its orbital velocity, allows for a stable orbit. Essentially, the centripetal force is the component of gravity that acts to keep Earth in its circular path around the Sun.


What are the different way the earth move?

The earth turns on its axis; it orbits around the earth-moon barycenter; it orbits around the sun.
