What planets orbits around the sun in backward direction from east to west?
All the planets in our solar system orbit around the Sun in the same direction.However, there are two planets that rotate on their axis "backwards" compared with the others. They are Uranus and Venus.
When comparing orbits which planet does not behave like the others?
Pluto does not behave like the other planets in our solar system because it has a highly inclined and elliptical orbit. This means that its path around the Sun is very different from the near-circular and more closely aligned orbits of the eight traditional planets.
Can anyone explain why planets go in eliptical orbit why dont they get collided?
Because the diameters of the orbits are different. Some are closer to the sun, others are further out.
Is earth larger or smaller than all the other planets?
Of the seven other planets that orbit the sun, three are smaller than Earth and four are larger.
Are the orbits of the planets evenly spaced?
No, the orbits of the planets in our solar system are not evenly spaced. The distances between the planets vary significantly, with some being much closer together and others much farther apart. This uneven distribution is influenced by factors such as gravitational interactions and the formation history of the solar system. The spacing of planets follows a pattern known as the "Titius-Bode law," but this is not a strict rule and does not apply to all celestial bodies.
Does all planets have elliptical orbits?
Yes, none of the planets in our solar system have exactly circular orbits, though some are more eccentric than others.
What moons are bigger than the planets?
No moon is larger than the planet it orbits. The two largest moons in the solar system, Ganymede and Titan, which orbit Jupiter and Saturn respectively, are larger than the planet Mercury, but no others.
Why is the sun larger than others?
The sun is larger because it has to produce heat.On Earth the sun orbits around us to give out warmth planets like Mercury also need the sun for important things.Earth has people on it so if we do not have the sun we would just be cold all day so it has to be everywhere.

What math concepts did Isaac Newton work with?
Calculus -- instantaneous changes. Binomial theorem, logarithms, ellipses for orbits of planets, and many others.

Why do planet do not collide as they travel around the sun?
Its a fairly good question. They wont collide as they are in separate orbits, which are many millions of km apart - orbits within orbits. The planets when drawn to scale are also tiny when compared with these orbits and distances. Having said that, their gravitational fields do indeed effect each other, distorting each others orbits.

Are the orbits of the planets evenly distributed in distance from the sun?
No, the orbits of the planets are not evenly distributed in distance from the Sun. The spacing between the planets varies significantly, with some being much closer together while others are farther apart. For instance, the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are relatively close to each other, while the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) are more widely spaced. This uneven distribution is a result of the processes that formed the solar system.
Why are some planets near the sun and some others far from the sun?
Near (in order from closest to farthest): Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars Far (same order as before): Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Why? I suppose that's just how things worked out when the planets formed from the "protoplanetary disk". The planets have to be spaced apart enough to form stable orbits. Otherwise their mutual gravitational attraction could disrupt their orbits.
