The heliocentric model proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus in the 16th century provided a theoretical framework for understanding planetary motion around the Sun. This model was further supported by Johannes Kepler's laws of planetary motion and Isaac newton's law of universal gravitation. Observations made through telescopes and spacecraft missions have confirmed the heliocentric model, providing evidence that planets do indeed orbit the Sun.
What else can I help you with?
Which of the following objects, including planets and other celestial bodies, does not orbit directly around the sun?
The moon does not orbit directly around the sun.
How does gravity affect the relationship between the sun and the planets?
Yes. It keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun.
Can you explain how the sun's gravity influences the motion and orbits of the planets in our solar system?
The sun's gravity affects the motion and orbits of planets in our solar system by keeping them in orbit around it. The gravitational pull of the sun keeps the planets moving in their elliptical orbits, preventing them from flying off into space. The strength of the sun's gravity decreases with distance, so planets closer to the sun orbit faster than those farther away. This gravitational force is what keeps the planets in their stable orbits around the sun.
Which planet has the shortest orbit around the sun?
Mercury, because it is the closest to the sun. Mercury takes 88 days to orbit the sun.
Is Uranus' orbit unusual compared to other planets in the solar system?
Yes, Uranus' orbit is unusual compared to other planets in the solar system because it is tilted on its side, causing it to rotate almost perpendicular to its orbit around the sun.
How many moons do the suns have?
The Sun has no moons. Moons orbit Planets > Planets orbit the Sun.
Does the sun orbit the planets or do the planets orbit the sun?
The planets orbit the Sun. The Sun is at the center of our solar system and does not move.
Does the sun orbit the planets?
No. The planets orbit the Sun and the Sun orbits itself.
What do the planets and the sun orbit?
the sun does not move, the planets orbit around the sun idiot.
Dose all the planets orbit the sun?
All the planets in our solar system orbit our sun. Recently other suns, far out in Space, have been discovered to have their own planets.
Which planets orbit the sun?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are the eight planets which orbit The Sun. 598 extrasolar planets have been discovered (thus far) which orbit other stars ("The Sun" is the proper name for our local star).All planets (and asteroids and comets) orbit the Sun.All moons orbit planets.
Can planets and stars orbit around the sun?
Planets orbit the sun. Stars do not.
How the moon orbit the sun?
None. This is a trick question. Moons orbit PLANETS. Planets orbit the Sun.
Does the sun move with the earth and moon?
No, the moon orbits the Earth and the Earth Orbits the Sun. The Earth does not orbit in circular patterns. This is proved by Johannes Kepler. Kepler states that the planets orbit in elliptical.
Do all planets orbit the moon?
No. The planets orbit the sun.
How fast do the planets orbit the earth?
The planets do not orbit the Earth, they orbit the sun.
Do moons and asteroids orbit the sun?
Asteroids orbit the sun. Moons orbit planets and planets orbit the sun. So you could say the moons orbit the sun. However, moons are kept in their orbits by the gravity of their planet and planets are kept in orbit by the gravity of the sun. So in that sense, moons do not orbit the sun.
