Io is a moon of the planet Jupiter.
Io is a moon of Jupiter. It can have a period of revolution around Jupiter of 1.769 days or you can have Jupiters revolution around the Sun of 11.85920 days.
around the sun
The revolution rate of Io is 42 hrs. 28 min.
The revolution rate of Io is 42 hrs. 28 min.
Io is the Galilean Moon that has the fastest revolution around Jupiter, completing one orbit in about 1.8 Earth days. Due to its close proximity to Jupiter, Io experiences strong tidal forces which contribute to its rapid orbit.
Interesting question. What makes a day on Io ? Is it having the sun in the sky, or having Jupiter in the sky ? And would that choice make a difference in the best answer ? I'll take the easy way out: Io's rotation on its axis is in sync with its period of revolution around Jupiter. Both are = 1.769 earth days = approx. 42hours 27.5minutes
The cast of After the Revolution - 1990 includes: Io Tillett Wright
The orbital period of Io is listed as 1.769 earth days, while the revolution periodof earth's moon is 27.32 days.So Io makes (27.32 / 1.769) = 15.44 swings around Jupiter for each time theearth's moon revolves around earth.
I'm pretty sure its 1.7 earth days
I'm pretty sure its 1.7 earth days
Io is smaller than the Earth, around 3660km in diameter compared with Earths diameter of around 12750km.
A lunar cycle is the time it takes for the moon to make a full revolution around the Earth. It takes about 29.5 days.
