Why do the planets not fall towards the sun or collide with each other? |
|
Answer» Answer: The simple answer is that their free-fall orbits are in LOCK with the sun (or more specifically, the solar system's CENTER of GRAVITY, which happens to be in the sun). Unless if the sun's gravity CHANGED for whatever reason or if SOMETHING happened to the acceleration & impacted free-fall, the planets will not collide. |
