In an astronomical context, the term "rotate" is used to reference the planet's day rotating on its axis, and "revolve" is used to indicate is revolution around its primary, the Sun... in this case, the planet's year.
The duration for each planet's year is different - Mercury being the shortest at about 88 Earth days, and increasing with increasing distance from the Sun, all the way out to Neptune whose year is about 165 Earth years long. Earth's year is of course about 365 days long.
What else can I help you with?
During the formation of the solar system from what did the Sun's satellites form?
Almost everything in the solar system at this time. Planets, Moons.
How many planets where a long time ago?
The planets in our solar system formed our of the solar nebular/disk from which the Sun was made (as the Sun formed), some 4,600 million years ago. Therefore there have always been roughly the same number of planets as we have now. However, our solar system could have lost one or more of the original planets that were formed as the planets settled into their current positions. As part of the settling process, orbital resonances can cause planets to interact with each other gravitationally and planets can be ejected from the forming solar system. If this did happen, then we do not how may planets there were originally.
Is Saturn as old as any of the other planets?
All the planets of our solar system are believed to have formed at about the same period in time.
what other planets are nearby to Jupiter?
Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar System so any of the other planets could fit inside a volume the size of Jupiter, some of them many times over.
Does life forms exist on other planets?
Within our solar system at the present time, no. Regarding planets orbiting other stars outside our solar system, our present technology is nowhere near able to tell.
Why was Copernicus theory revolutionary?
The theory of Copernicus was revolutionary because at the time, people believed the Earth was the center of the solar system instead of the Sun.
Are there any planets older then earth?
No. Planets in solar system were created same time as earth was created. -The memory Guru of India
What is the youngest planet from solar system?
The planets must all have formed at approximately the same time.
What planets in your solar system take the longest time to orbit the sun?
Neptune takes the longest
What time does the 11 planets takes to orbit the sun?
What do you mean by "the" 11 planets? If you are referring to our Solar System, there are 8 recognized planets. If you refer to some other stellar system, please clarify which one.
What came first the planets formed or the earth?
at present the theory is that all of the planets that make up the solar system were formed at the same time when the Solar System condensed out of a cloud of gas about 4.5-4.7 billion years ago.
When was Saturn creatred?
Saturn formed at about the same time as the rest of the planets in our solar system, including Earth.
