What else can I help you with?
When will a planet travel fastest in its orbit?
The earth is moving fastest in its orbit at the moment of perihelion, when it is closest to the sun. the happens around January 3.
Why is a comet visible for only a short portion of its orbit around the sun?
A comet is visible for only a short portion of its orbit around the sun because it only becomes bright and visible when it gets closer to the sun. As it approaches the sun, the sun's heat vaporizes the comet's icy surface, creating a glowing coma and tail that make it visible from Earth. Once the comet moves away from the sun, it becomes dimmer and harder to see.
When Venus passes between the Earth and the sun it is visible as a tiny black dot on the sun's bright disk. Why is Mars never visible in this same way?
The orbit of mars is outside that of the earths orbit
What moves around another object in an orbit?
That is called a satellite.
What is the definititon of orbit?
An "orbit" is the path traced as one body moves round another body under the influence of gravity.
What does the earth spin on as it moves through space?
an orbit
What happens when the earth moves out of the planes of the moon-sun orbit?
There won't be light and we would die of the cold you twit
What moves in an orbit or circle around something?
The verb is also "orbit".
What is the path which the earth moves as it rotates?
orbit
At which point in its orbit does earth move slowest?
Any object in a closed orbit moves slowest when it's at the point farthest away from the central body.If the central body happens to be the sun, then the point in the orbit that's farthest from the sun iscalled "aphelion". The earth passes aphelion on July 3 or 4.
Each planet moves in a different orbit and at a different?
Each planet moves in a different orbit, at a different average distance from the sun, and at a different speed.
What happens when a planet moves closer to the sun?
When a planet moves closer to the sun, it experiences an increase in temperature. This can lead to changes in its atmosphere, such as stronger winds or the melting of ice caps. The proximity to the sun can also affect the planet's orbit and gravitational interactions with other celestial bodies.
What is it called when the moon is visible during the day?
When the moon is visible during the day, it is called a "day moon." This occurrence happens because of the moon's position in its orbit around Earth where it can be seen from Earth in daylight hours.
When will a planet travel fastest in its orbit?
The earth is moving fastest in its orbit at the moment of perihelion, when it is closest to the sun. the happens around January 3.

What is an electron orbit region around an atom?
An orbit is the path around the nucleus of an atom. an electron generally moves along this orbit.
