I think, the earth orbiting the suria<sun> in straight line .it is true.?

Question

Il thnk, something entity was curve, and then, we saw that the eafth have been orbiting earth in elips. Sorry, I am not a very smart boy.. MMMM....ADA TAK SESEORANG YANG TOLONG SELESAIKAN SOALAN NI,?

Answer 1

Not sure exactly what you're asking...

The earth revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. The plane remains the same.

Answer 2

All objects in space are trying to travel in a straight line, however, the gravitational pull of nearby objects pull them into an elliptical orbit. So, yes, the Earth is trying to zoom straight by the sun, but the sun's gravity is trying to pull the Earth into it. The result is an orbit.

The moon is also trying to move in a straight line. The reason the moon orbits the Earth instead of the sun is because of gravitational proximity. The effect of Earth's gravity on the moon (approx. 250,000 miles away) is greater than the effect of the sun's gravity on the moon (93 million miles away).

Answer 3

You cannot orbit anyting in a straight line. However the universe is expanding all the time and that may change or alter the earths orbit (length and time) around the sun. The Moons gravitational pull on the earth helps stop us from spinning gently in to the sun, I think.

Answer 4

No. The earth does not orbit in a straight line. A straight line is just that, a straight line. An orbit is either circular or elliptical.

The earth's orbit around the sun, is a slightly eccentric circle. But most defiantely not a straight line.

Answer 5

I must disagree with you: I think you are a very smart boy! I can understand your English but I certainly can't understand your Malay!

I think that what you are getting at here is curved space? Einstein's general theory leads to the proposition that a mass (like the sun) curves space and thus an orbiting planet whilst appearing to move in an ellipse is actually following its own 'straight line' path in curved space. Is this what you mean?
