Uranus.
What planet rotates the slowest?
Venus has the slowest rotational period- 243 days to rotate once.
What planet requires one earth year to rotate on its axis?
There is no such planet known. The planet with the longest rotation period is Venus. That rotates in about 243 Earth days.
Which planet rotates very quickly?
The planet with the highest rotational speed in our solar system is Jupiter, with a period just under ten hours.
What is mars body rotation period hours?
The planet Mars rotates once in about 24 hours and 37 minutes.
