According to Kepler's Law the closer you are to the Sun the faster you travel. You kind of whip around it. Imagine running and reaching out to a pole and it whips you around it.

It increases.


What happens to the mass of a particle as the particle approacches the speed of light?

When any object with mass moves, no matter at what speed, its mass increases. The faster it moves, the faster its mass increases. And the closer to the speed of light it moves, the closer to infinity its mass grows.


What happens to a plant's speed when it gets closer to the sun?

When two artificial satellite revolve around the earth the one's closer and the one's further. which one revolve the earth with higher speed?

The one that is closer will move at a higher speed. The same happens, for example, with planets revolving around the Sun - the planets closer to the Sun move faster.


What happens when light moves from a material in which it's speed is higher to a material in which it's speed is lower?

-- its speed decreases -- its wavelength increases -- if it doesn't approach the boundary perpendicular to it, then it bends closer to the perpendicular


What happens to the speed of an object like a planet or satellite if it moves closer to the object it is revolving around?

It increases in order to conserve angular momentum.


What is earths speed in the orbit?

8600000000mph


What happens to the speed of planets orbiting the sun as you get closer to the sun?

As you get closer to the sun, the speed of planets increases due to the stronger gravitational pull from the sun. This increase in speed is necessary to balance the pull of gravity with the planet's tendency to move in a straight line. This phenomenon is described by Kepler's second law of planetary motion.


How does the speed effect the speed of the sail boat?

The closer to the maximum speed the boat gets the harder it is to increase the speed.


What happens to the orbital speed of an object as it approaches the sun?

As an object approaches the sun, its orbital speed increases due to the stronger gravitational pull from the sun. This increase in speed allows the object to maintain its orbit despite the stronger gravitational force it experiences closer to the sun.


Why the earth not in thermal equilibrium with sun?

because the earth and the sun is not in the thermal contact with each other that is why the earth & the sun is not in thermal equilibrium.


What units would you use to describe the speed of earths plates?
