The orbital period of Ganymede around Jupiter is 7.154 Earth days, or about one Earth week.
Jupiter has around 10 hours shorter day compared to Earth. It revolves around the sun once in about 11.86 Earth years. So, a year on Jupiter is roughly equivalent to 4,332 Earth days.
-- The moon you see in our sky is nowhere near Jupiter. It revolves around the Earth once every 29.53 days. -- As of right now (early 2012), we know of 66 moons that revolve around Jupiter. Their orbital periods range from 7 hours to 982 days.
It takes 11.86 earth years for Jupiter to orbit around the sun so converting the years into days. 11.86 TIMES 365 = 4329 EARTH DAYS.
Jupiter revolves or orbits around the sun once every 11.86 Earth years, or once every 4,330.6 Earth days. Jupiter travels at an average speed of 29,236 miles per hour or 47,051 kilometers per hour in its orbit around the sun.
Year: Going once around the Sun takes 12 of our years, since Ganymede accompanies Jupiter. Day: It takes 7 of our days to orbit Jupiter once; like many moons, its rotation is synchronous, so that is also how long it takes to rotate once around its axis.
The orbital revolution period for Jupiter (a Jovian year) is equal to about 4335.6 Earth days or about 11.86 Earth years. A "day" on Jupiter is about 10 hours, so this would be about 10,475.8 Jovian days.
Jupiter takes just over 4332 days to orbit once around the sun.
Jupiter takes 11.86 years to orbit once around the sun, which is 4332 days.
Jupiter takes just under 399 days to orbit the sun once.
No, it's more like 9.92 HOURS for Jupiter to rotate once. For its enormous size, Jupiter spins like a top!
Jupiter has 4332 days in a year because its orbit around the Sun is much larger compared to Earth's orbit. Jupiter's greater distance from the Sun means it takes longer for the planet to complete one orbit, resulting in a longer year on Jupiter compared to Earth.
