Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An orbit is a regular, repeating path that one object takes around another object or center of gravity. Orbiting objects, which are called satellites, include planets, moons, asteroids, and manmade devices.

Detailed explanation-2: -An orbit is a regular, repeating path that one object in space takes around another one. An object in an orbit is called a satellite. A satellite can be natural, like Earth or the moon. Many planets have moons that orbit them.

Detailed explanation-3: -An orbit is the curved path in space that is followed by an object going round and round a planet, moon, or star. Mars and Earth have orbits which change with time. If something such as a satellite orbits a planet, moon, or sun, it moves around it in a continuous, curving path.

Detailed explanation-4: -To move in a curved path, a planet must have an acceleration toward the center of the circle. This is called centripetal acceleration and is supplied by the mutual gravitational attraction between the sun and the planet. Motion in a circular orbit.
