The planets revolution from the sun? Each planet in our solar system revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. The time it takes for a planet to complete one revolution around the sun is known as its orbital period. This period varies for each planet based on its distance from the sun. What is the difference between planets that rotations time are shorter than earth to planets rotation time that are longer than earth? The outer planets all rotate faster than the inner planets. Each of them has a rotational period shorter than an Earth day. All of the inner planets have rotational periods longer than one Earth day. The outer planets are mostly made up of hydrogen, helim, and ice, and they are much larger than the inner planets which are mostly iron and various types of rock. Jupiters length of rotation? Jupiter rotates once on its axis each 9.9 hours, and revolves once around the sun each 11.86 earth years. What is meant by the rotation of planets? It means they spin. They turn in space, pivoting around an invisible axis that runs from pole to pole through each planet. Different planets spin at different speeds, and their spins are not perfectly aligned with their orbits (revolution) around the Sun. The spin or rotation of the Earth is what makes the Sun appear to move across the sky. Which planet has the shortest nights? Jupiter would have the shortest nights, at about 5 hours each. Jupiter's rotational period is just under 10 hours. (责任编辑:) |
