What planet have years longer than its days?
Earth, unless you meant days longer than years. In which case, that would be Venus.
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 planet has days longer than earth years?
No planet in our solar system has days longer than one Earth year. Venus has the longest day -- it's 243 Earth days.
Does venus have less days than earth?
A year on Venus is shorter than a year on Earth, but a "day" on Venus is much longer than a day on Earth. I'm not sure exactly what you were trying to ask, but that should about cover it.
Is a day on venus longer than a year on venus?
Because Venus rotates very slowly, with one rotation taking longer than one orbit. It takes it 224 Earth days to orbit the sun but 243 Earth days to fully rotate. Yes, but the "solar day" is only 117 Earth days,of course.
Can a planets day be longer than a planets year?
Yes - a prime example is the planet Venus... Its 'day' is 243 Earth days, and it's 'year' is 225 Earth days, meaning a day on Venus is longer than it's year !
Why is one day one Venus longer than a year on Venus?
Because Venus rotates very slowly, with one rotation taking longer than one orbit. It takes it 224 Earth days to orbit the sun but 243 Earth days to fully rotate. Yes, but the "solar day" is only 117 Earth days,of course.
What is Venus's rotation?
It takes it 243 Earth days for 1 rotation! That is longer than its year!
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 has longer days than planet year?
Mercury, Venus, and Mars all have longer days, both solar and siderial (rotational) days. Each rotation of Mercury takes 58.65 Earth days, Venus takes 243 Earth days, and Mars takes 1.03 Earth days (24.6 hours). There could be exoplanets with a period of rotation longer than our day. The five dwarf planets (including Pluto) also have a longer rotation period than an Earth day.
What planet's days are longer than one earth year?
None. Venus has the longest rotation period of 243 days, less than a year.
Why is daylight longer on Venus than daylight on earth?
Venus' day is long because it rotates slowly on its axis. One day on Venus is 243 days, which is longer than one year on Venus, which is 225 days.
