Question

A planet orbiting the Sun will experience the largest gravitational force and greatest tangential speed when it is

the Sun. It will experience the smallest gravitational attraction and lowest tangential speed when it is

the Sun.

Answer 1

A planet's orbital speed changes, depending on how far it is from the Sun. The closer a planet is to the Sun, the stronger the Sun's gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves. The farther it is from the Sun, the weaker the Sun's gravitational pull, and the slower it moves in its orbit.
