What happens if the speed around the sun decreases or increases?
If the speed around the sun decreases, the orbit will become more elongated and the planet will move farther away from the sun. If the speed increases, the orbit will become more circular and the planet will move closer to the sun. This change in speed can affect the length of the planet's year and the temperatures experienced.
What is the path of the planets?
Its Orbit.Johannes Kepler (Germany), who lived between the time of Copernicus (Poland) and Isaac Newton (England), correctly postulated that all of the sun's planets indeed revolve about the sun in orbits which have the shape of an ellipse, with the sun at one focus of the ellipse. Isaac Newton, in his Principiae Mathematica, further stated, essentially, that any planet orbiting any star, or any moon orbiting any planet, would follow an elliptical path.
Does the sun orbit Earth?
No, the sun does not orbit Earth. Earth orbits around the sun.
What provides the centripetal force required for planetary motion?
In the case of planetary motion, the centripetal force required to keep planets in orbit around the sun is provided by the gravitational pull between the planet and the sun. This gravitational force acts as the centripetal force, keeping the planet moving in its elliptical orbit.
What is the difference between a dwarf planet and a planet?
A dwarf planet is a celestial body that orbits the sun and is spherical in shape, but has not cleared its orbit of other debris. A planet, on the other hand, is also a celestial body that orbits the sun and is spherical in shape, but has cleared its orbit of other debris.
This planet is the shortest orbit around the sun?
Mercury.
Does the closest planet to the sun have the shortest orbit?
Yes. The closer an object is to the Sun, the shorter the distance it has to travel to get around it.
The planet with the shortest orbit arount the sun?
Of the known planets, Mercury is the one at the smallest average distance from the sun, and with the shortest orbit.
Which planet ravolves fastest around the sun?
Mercury...cos it's closest therefore has the shortest orbit
How long does it take for Mercury the planet rotate around the sun?
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun thus Mercury has the shortest orbit duration. It takes the planet Mercury 88 days to rotate around the sun.
Which planet revovles around the sun in the shortest amount of time?
Mercury. It takes only 88 Earth days to orbit the sun.
What planet has the second shortest orbit?
Mercury has the second shortest orbit of all the planets in our solar system, taking about 88 Earth days to complete one revolution around the Sun. However, if you meant the planet with the second shortest orbital period after the Moon's natural orbit, then Venus takes about 225 Earth days to orbit the Sun, making it the second shortest among the eight planets.
What Planet Moves Around The Sun In The Shortest Time?
Of the known planets in the solar system, Mercury, being nearest to the sun, completes its orbit in the shortest time . . . 88 earth days.
Does the planet with the shortest revolution have the shortest rotation?
No, the rotation of a planet on it's axis, or it's spin is not really related to the time it takes to orbit or revolve around the sun. For example, Mercury and Venus are the closest planets to the sun, yet they take a long time to rotate on their axis.
Does mercury have the largest orbit?
Mercury has the shortest orbit of all the planets because it is the closest planet to the Sun.
Which planet has the shortest orbital period and how long is it?
The planet Mercury has the shortest orbit time, because it is the closest to the sun.
Which planet completes its journey first around the sun .why?
If you mean which planet orbits the Sun the quickest it's the planet Mercury. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and the closer an object is to the Sun the faster it must go around to avoid falling into the Sun.
