Question

Do the Planets move faster when they are closer to the Sun ?

Answer 1

1. Kepler's second law describes the way an Object's speed varies along its Orbit.
2. When a planet is closer to the Sun, then the Sun's gravitational pull is stronger, so the planet moves faster.
3. A planet's orbital speed changes, depending on how far it is from the Sun.
4. The closer a planet is to the Sun, the stronger the Sun's Gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves.

Therefore, the Planets move faster when they are closer to the Sun.
