The concept of a 24 hour day cannot be extended to Venus or Mercury as it is to Earth and Mars. On Earth, there is only a tiny difference between rotational time and solar time. On Venus, the difference between the sidereal day (243 Earth days) and the solar day (117 Earth days) makes clock times meaningless.
A rotational day on Venus takes about 5832 Earth hours. A sunrise-to-sunrise day takes about 2802 Earth hours. Using either to design a clock would not be practical. Even the defining characteristic of day and night are not important because radar is used to observe the surface beneath the clouds. There is also virtually no difference between day and night temperatures on the surface.
One concept that is used for time on Venus is the longitudinal noon, which establishes 360 divisions of rotational time to the 1.92 solar days that exist during the Venusian year (225 Earth days). Of course, the Sun would never actually be visible on the surface.

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 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.
How many earth days equal one sidereal day on venus?
The sidereal day is the time it takes for a planet to rotate once. For Venus that's about 243 of our Earth days.
How many days does it take Venus to orbit around the Sun you one day?
It takes Venus about 224.7 Earth days to orbit the Sun.
Which is longer on Venus one day or one year?
one day because the hours is 224
Length of day of Venus's?
An apparent or solar day on Venus is 116.75 days (this is not the same as its rotational period relative to the background stars, which is 243 days).
How many earth days does it take for a day on Venus?
one day on venus is 59 earth-days long

How many hours and 1 day?
If you mean "how many hours are IN one day", then there are 24 hours in a day.
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.
How many earth days does it take one side of Venus to have both day and night?
it takes 234 earth days for venus to have one day and night
What movement of the planet is one day on Earth?
One full rotation (movement) of the Earth on it's axis is one Earth day. That's why days are different lengths depending on which planet you're on. One Jupiter day's only 10 hours while one Venus day is longer than one Venus year
How many earth days in one day in venus?
243 days
How many hours in one day?
a day is 24 hours long24 hours in one dayApproximately 24
How many does hours equal a day?
There are 24 hours in one whole day.
What is the duration of One Touch of Venus film?
The duration of One Touch of Venus - film - is 1.37 hours.
