What influence does gravitation have on the planet shape?

Gravitation answers to a description in Einstein's general theory in which spacetime itself is curved by the effects of gravity; the influence of gravity is such that planets tend towards an ideally spherical shape; although all known planets have a slight equatorial bulge (spherically oblate shape) due to their rotation.

Why does the temperature of a planet vary with the distance from the Sun?

The main reason why a planet's temperature can vary due to its distance from the Sun is because less solar radiation will reach it. But there can be numerous factors that influence a planet's temperature regardless of its distance from the Sun. The main influence being the atmosphere. I.e. Venus is further from the Sun than Mercury, but is the hottest planet in the solar system because its atmosphere traps carbon dioxide causing a runaway green house affect. Some planets reflect the Sun's rays from their atmosphere or surface. The amount with which this occurs is called albedo. Enceladus has the highest albedo known, and is colder than Saturn, the planet it orbits.


Has latitude and longitude to do with temperature?
