The speed of planets will vary as they travel at different speeds. Mercury is the fastest planet while Pluto is the slowest. The speed of the planets is influenced by how close they are to the sun.

Do planets revolve around the sun at the same speed?

No, planets do not revolve around the sun at the same speed. Their orbital speeds depend on their distance from the sun - planets closer to the sun have shorter orbital periods and faster speeds, while those further away have longer orbital periods and slower speeds.


Do the planets travel at the same speed?

No, planets do not all travel at the same speed. The speed at which a planet moves in its orbit around the Sun depends on its distance from the Sun and its mass. Closer planets tend to move faster than those further away.


What keeps the planets from being pulled to the sun surface by gravity?

The orbital speed of the planets prevent this. The planet's ARE all failing towards the Sun but their horizontal speed means they always miss.

How is your speed compares to the sensitivity of radial velocity searches for extrasolar planets when your speed is 0.0000012 percent of the speed of light.?

You gave the answer in your question: 0.0000012%.


What is the relationship between the distance from the sun and the speed of revolution of each of the planets?

The relationship between the distance from the sun and the speed of revolution of the planets is described by Kepler's laws of planetary motion. Specifically, the further a planet is from the sun, the slower its orbital speed tends to be. This is because gravitational force weakens with distance, resulting in a longer orbital period and reduced speed for planets farther out in the solar system. Thus, inner planets like Mercury and Venus revolve around the sun much faster than outer planets like Neptune and Pluto.


Do all the planets travel around the sun at the same speed yes or no?

no they do not
