Which two planets have the same rotation?
Earth and Mars are the planets in this solar system with similar rotation speed of approximately 24 hr.
Why all planets are notv on the same orbit?
Because their distances are not the same from the Sun. Minus this factor, it is impossible for any planets to orbit on the same orbitation.
Can using a planets rotation during the planetary alignment speed up space travel across your solar system?
Yes and no if u were using a planets rotation it will speed you up for a limited amount of time
What are the causes of daily variations in temperature on a planets surface?
the speed of a planet's rotation
Is the speed at which the earth rotates constant?
No. Earth's rotation speed is affected by the gravitational pull of the sun, moon and planets.
Why do planets finish their orbits at different times?
because they all have different rotation speed
Why do planets differ in their temperature?
The main factor that affect their temperature are... their proximity to the sun - and their speed of rotation.
What force keeps the planets in rotation?
The force that keeps all of our planets in rotation is gravity.
What planets has the fastest period rotation?
Jupiter - it has the shortest day and the fastest roational speed
Which planets orbit in a retrograde rotation?
The planets Venus, Uranus and Pluto rotate in retrograde rotation. Hope that helped ~ :-))
Why must the inner planets travel faster than the outer planets?
They are closer to the star they circulate around or the other planets and so their centre of gravity is closer, therefore the force is stronger and thus causing their rotation to increase in speed.
What is unusual about Venus' rotation?
its rotation is opposite of all the other planets.
