C) an elliptical orbit there is one focus and the satellite is located there.
D) the sun and a planet are the two Foci of an orbit

Answer 1

Answer:

th orbit of a planet has an elliptical shape with the sun at one focus

Explanation:

i just took an A P E X test and got it right

Answer 2

The correct option is option (B)

The orbit of the planets is elliptical with the sun at one of the foci.

Orbit of planets:

According to Kepler's Laws:

• The orbit of a planet around the Sun is an ellipse, with the Sun in one of the focal points of that ellipse. The planet's orbit lies in a plane, called the orbital plane. The point on the orbit closest to the attracting body is the periapsis. The point farthest from the attracting body is called the apoapsis.
• As the planet moves in its orbit, the line from the Sun to the planet sweeps a constant area of the orbital plane for a given period of time. This means that the planet moves faster near its perihelion than near its aphelion, because at the smaller distance it needs to trace a greater arc to cover the same area. This law is usually stated as equal areas in equal time.
• For a given orbit, the ratio of the cube of its semi-major axis to the square of its period is constant.
