Do the planets go up and down ?

Question

if so what planet goes highest in our solar system

Answer 1

I'd say Pluto goes up and down the most, but it's been re-classified and is no longer a planet.

Answer 2

  They all go back and forth.

Answer 3

Some of the answers are right, if not very helpful! Someone once said that the only direction in space is forward. No up and down etc.

If I understand your question, you are asking which orbit is 'higher'? Have a look at the picture link. It's our solar system. The planet that you could consider to be 'highest' would be Pluto. Problem there; it's arguably no longer classed as a planet! Anyway, check out the picture and see if it helps you.

Answer 4

no, they go round and round on a similar plane to each other.  

Answer 5

If you mean orbital inclination all eight planets have small inclinations. Pluto however has an orbital inclination of approx 17 degrees. This means that it orbits approx 17 degrees above and below the reference point which in this case is the equator of the sun. to calculate inclination i

i= arccos hsubz/ absoulte value of h :where h is the orbital momentum vector or angular momentum of orbit and h sub z is the z axis compnent of h

Answer 6

It's subjective, if you think they do then they do.

Answer 7

round and round  

Answer 8

there is no high low up or down in space

Answer 9

All the planets in the solar move in a single plane. It's up to you whether you call this an up/down movement or a horizontal movement, since there is no up in space.

Answer 10

DEAR FRIEND I THINK YOU SHOULD CONCENTRATE OF RELATIVITY THEORY

EVERY PLANT POSITION  IS RELATIVE TO OTHER PLANET

FOR EXAMPLE  IF YOUE ARE LIVING IN INDIA JAPEN IS IN YOUR NORTH EAST AND JAPEN IS IN WEST OF CANADA

ONCE WE CAN NOT FIX THE UP AND DOWN OR RIGHT OR LEFT ON EARTH HOW WE CAN SAY ABOUT UNIVERSE AS IT IS MULTI DIMENTIONAL AND ITS UP AND DOWN IS NOT FIX
