Why do astronomers say the sun rotates every 27 to 31 days rather than give an exact number?
The sun is not a solid object and different parts of it rotate at different speeds.
What is Saturn's rotation on it's axis?
Saturn rotates at slightly different speeds at different latitudes. On average the rotation period is about 10 and a half hours.
How long does it take the planet Saturn to make one rotation on it's axis?
About ten and a half hours. It rotates at slightly different speeds at different latitudes.
How many days does it takes for the sun to spin once on its axis at location A?
The Sun rotates at different speeds at different latitudes. So we need to know where "location A" is, unfortunately.

Blank currents are currents that involve warm water flowing in different directions at different speeds close to the top of oceans?
SURFACE
Does the sun have a revolution?
Yes. The Sun rotates every 25.5 days at the equator. Because the Sun is not solid, various regions rotate at different speeds. The polar regions rotate every 36 days, and in-between latitudes spin at in-between speeds.
What type of currents are currents that involve warm water flowing in different directions at different speeds close to the top of oceans?
surface currents
How much do the sun rotate?
Because the Sun is not solid, different parts rotate at different speeds. Near the equator of the Sun, it rotates once in about 26 days, while the polar regions rotate in about 33 days.
Currents that involve warm water flowing in different directions at different speeds close to the top of oceans?
Surface currents involve warm water that flows in different directions and different speeds that stay close to the top of the oceans. They originate in tropical waters and flow in circular motions from all the major gyres of the world ocean.
What is a water wave?
dispersion of water waves generally refers to frequency dispersion, which means that waves of different wavelengths travel at different phase speeds. Water waves, in this context, are waves propagating on the water surface, and forced by gravity and surface tension.
How do you find the average velocity if there are two different speeds?
We sum the two different speeds and devided by two
