- The relative sizes and type of orbit are similar to the Pluto–Charon system. In physics, an orbit is the gravitationally curved path of an object around a point in space, for example the orbit of a planet about a star or a natural satellite around a planet. Normally, orbit refers to a regularly repeating path around a body, although it may occasionally be used for a non recurring trajectory or a path around a point in space.

What's the definition of projectile motion? A sixer hit by a cricketer is a good example. Projectile motion is a predictable path traveled by an object that is influenced only by the initial launch speed, launch angle, and the acceleration due to gravity. Projectiles follow a predictable parabolic path, like the sixer.
