What is the only planet in your solar system that rotates counter clockwise?
There are two, Venus and Uranus.
Which is the only planet in our solar system that rotates in a diffrent direction from the other planets?
Venus and Uranus both do this. Venus is the clearest example.
How does the rotation of Venus' differs from that of Earth?
Venus is the only planet in our solar system that rotates clockwise. It also rotates very, very slowly - taking 243 earth days to rotate once.
What is the only planet that rotates a different direction than the other planets?
Actually there are two, Venus and Uranus.
What is the only planet in your solar system that rotates different direction than any other planets?
That would be Venus which rotates retrograde. Actually, Uranus does too.
Is earth the only planet that rotates on its axis?
No. All the eight planets rotates on their own axes at their own rates.
Does Mars rotate clockwise or counter clockwise?
Mars rotates counter-clockwise like almost all other objects in our solar system. Within our solar system, only Venus and Uranus are known to have different rotational patterns.
What is the only planet that rotates on its side?
Uranus is the only planet which rotates on its side, with an axial tilt of 97.86 degrees.
What is different about Venus compared to the other planets?
Venus is the hottest planet in the Solar System even though it is the second closest to the Sun. The atmosphere traps the heat into the planet and heats it up.
What planet spins in a reverse direction to all the others?
The planet Venus no longer rotates in its original direction, but turns very slowly clockwise (east to west). This is believed to have been caused by a huge collision sometime after the formation of the planets.
How long are the days on Venus compared to the days on Earth?
The Earth rotates in about 23 hours and 56 minutes. That's called the "sidereal day". The sidereal day on Venus is about 243 Earth days. As a year on Venus is only about 224.7 Earth days, this makes Venus' day longer than its year. Venus is the only planet in our Solar System to have this feature.
Which planet in our solar system is the only one to rotate in a different direction from the others?
There are actually 2 planets that are different. Venus rotates counter clockwise. (Sun rises in the West on Venus) Neptune is tilted so far over that it rotates on its side. Instead of a North and South pole, it has an East and West pole.
