Detailed Solution

It is the gravitational force that is responsible for the revolution of the planet around the sun.
If an object moves in a straight line, it will continue to move in the same direction unless an external force acts. And to move an object in a circle, any external force must always work on it. And this force is known as centripetal force, which acts towards the centre of the circle. And it is the gravitational force responsible for the planet’s revolution around the sun.
