Which inner planets have retrograde rotation?
Out of the four, only Venus. Mercury's rotation is very slow though, compared with its orbital period of the sun.
Which planets have a short revolution period inner or outer?
Inner
What is the difference of The rotational period of the inner and outer planets?
Rotational time of the planets is random (the length of the planet's day), but the outer planets do spin faster than the inner planets.
What is the ratio of the period of rotation between mercury and Neptune why?
Inner planet
Are inner planets large or small?
The inner, or Terrestrial planets are very small in comparison to the outer, or Jovian planets. The smallest Jovian planet, Uranus, is 14.5 times larger than the largest Terrestrial planet, Earth.
Compare the rotational period of the inner and outer planets?
The rotational period of the inner planets is much faster than the rotational period of the outer planets. The rotation of some planets takes years to complete.
Which inner planets have retrograde rotation?

What inner planet has the longest rotation?
Venus
Which inner planet takes the longest to orbit the sun?
Mars takes the longest of the inner planets.
Which inner planet has a retrograde rotation?
Venus is the only inner planet that has retrograde rotation; Uranus and Pluto are the only outer planets that have retrograde rotation.
Which planets have a short revolution period inner or outer?
Inner
How long do inner planets rotation and revolution around the sun?
PENIS
An inner planet that has retrograde rotation?
Venus. It spins the other way compared to the other inner planets.
What inner planet has a retrograde rotation?
Venus is the only inner planet that has a retrograde rotation. Venus is also only one of two planets in the Solar System to have a retrograde rotation; Uranus is the other planet.
What is the difference of The rotational period of the inner and outer planets?
Rotational time of the planets is random (the length of the planet's day), but the outer planets do spin faster than the inner planets.
What are three ways that the outer and inner planets are alike?
Shape, rotation-direction, and orbit-direction.
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.
