the gravitational pull is greater. Therefore the orbit is smaller. When the mass of the sun is decreased‚ the orbit is larger. Question Three: Why does the sun (body 1) follow a circular path? How does the path change as its mass changes? Why? Explain your answer. The sun follows a circular path because it is being influenced by the gravitational pull of the planets. When the mass of the sun is closer to the mass of the planet‚ the circle is larger. This is because the gravitational force increases
