It takes about 243 Earth days for Venus to rotate once. That's called a "sidereal day". But, if there were anyone there to notice, they would see that the Sun (they couldn't SEE it, but they might be able to detect it) rises in the West and sets in the East.

The "solar day" on Venus is only about 117 Earth days. This "day" is based on the position of the Sun and depends on orbital motion as well as rotation.

How many hours does it take Venus to spin once?

It takes about 243 of our days for Venus to do one rotation. That is about 5,832 hours.


Which is longer on Venus one day or one year?

one day because the hours is 224


How many earth days is a year on Venus?

1 day on Venus is as long as one year on Earth. No seriously, that is true, it takes about one year for venus to make a complete rotation (i dont mean revolution, but rotation like spinning a basket ball.) Actually Venus rotates in about 243 Earth days and that's only about 8 months, not a year. One day on Venus is about 243 Earth days long. There are 24 hours in a day on Earth, 243 x 24=5832 hours. That's the rotation period, known as the "sidereal day". But it's more complicated than that because you're ignoring the "solar day". The solar day depends on a planet's motion round the Sun as well as its spin. For Venus the solar day is about 116.75 Earth days. That's about 116.75 x 24 = 2802 hours.


How many earth days will make a venus day?

There are 243 Earth days for a Venus day - but a Venus year is just under 225 Earth days. Therefore - a day on Venus is longer than a year !


What is the length of the day on the planet with the highest average surface temperature?

That planet is Venus. The rotation period of Venus is 243 Earth days. That's called a "sidereal day". On Earth the sidereal day is about 23 hours and 56 minutes. There is also the "solar day", based on the position of the Sun in the sky. On Earth, that's exactly 24 hours. On Venus the solar day is about 117 Earth days in length. As you can see, there is a huge difference in the lengths of the two days on Venus. That's because Venus rotates very slowly.

How many hours make a day on Venus?

This question is meaningless. An Earth day would be the same length no matter what planet you are on. An Earth day would be the equivalent of 0.004 Venus days and about the same number of Venus year (it takes a whole year for Venus to go round its orbit). A Venus day is 243 Earth days. That's 243 Earth days to rotate once. Astronomers call this a sidereal day. However there is also the solar day of 117 Earth days.
