Orbital velocity is the average velocity (or speed) of a planet as it orbits around the sun. It is usually expressed as km/s or mph.
A comet's velocity is largest when it is closest to the Sun, a point known as perihelion. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, the comet accelerates as it approaches the Sun due to the gravitational pull, resulting in its highest speed at this closest point in its orbit. As it moves away from the Sun towards aphelion, its velocity decreases.
Mars is a planetary body.
Earth's average orbital velocity around the Sun is about 29.78 km/s, while Mercury, being closer to the Sun, has a higher average orbital velocity of approximately 47.87 km/s. This difference is primarily due to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, which state that planets closer to the Sun travel faster in their orbits. As a result, Mercury orbits the Sun more quickly than Earth.
"Planetary orbits" is the technical term.
3 laws' of planetary motion
The velocity a rocket must reach to establish an orbit around the Earth is called orbital velocity. It is the speed required for an object to overcome gravitational pull and maintain a stable orbit around the planet. The orbital velocity depends on the altitude of the orbit and follows Kepler's laws of planetary motion.
According to Kepler's second law of planetary motion, the line joining a planet to the sun covers equal areas in equal time intervals.
A comet's velocity is largest when it is closest to the Sun, a point known as perihelion. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, the comet accelerates as it approaches the Sun due to the gravitational pull, resulting in its highest speed at this closest point in its orbit. As it moves away from the Sun towards aphelion, its velocity decreases.
The adjective form of "planet" is "planetary." It describes anything related to or characteristic of planets, such as planetary systems, planetary atmospheres, or planetary science.
