"2.11 degrees" is the sort of number that's sometimes given. However, most sources now say that the tilt is probably less than one degree. Either way, it's
the smallest tilt of any planet.

Mercury rotation on its axis?
Period of rotation is about 58.65 Earth days.
Which planet has a rotation period closest in length to earth's rotation period?
Mars, with a rotation period of 24 hours 37 minutes 23 seconds (time taken for one spin on its axis relative to background stars).
What planet rotates around its axis most like the earth?
Mars. It has a very similar axis tilt and rotation period.
How do you get the ratio of earth's orbital period about the sun to the earth's period of rotation about its own axis?
The period of the earth's orbit around the sun is one year. The period of earth's orbit about its own axis is one day. If we estimate one year to be about 365 days, we simply get the ratio 365:1 as the ratio of the period of earth's orbit around the sun to that of earth's rotation about its own axis.
What is the difference between a planet's period of rotation and period of revolution?
All planets in our solar system vary in the time it takes them to complete a revolution. This is due to their differing distances from the sun. As far as rotation goes, the time varies from nine hours and fifty minutes for Jupiter to 244 days for Venus to make a like rotation.
Mercury rotation on its axis?
Period of rotation is about 58.65 Earth days.
The period of the moon's rotation on its axis is?
The period of the moon's rotation on its axis is around 27 days. That's the reason why the moon appears stationary from Earth.
What is mercurys period number?
mercurys period number is 80
What is mercurys revolutionary period?
88 Earth days to revolve around the Sun. About 58.65 Earth days to rotate on its axis.
What is the period of one rotation on urauns axis?
17.24 hours
What is Mercury's rotation period and what does rotation mean?
mercury's rotation period is 58.647 earth days. a rotation is when the planet turns around on its axis, like what the earth does once every day.
What is the difference of a planets period of rotation and period of revolution?
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.
What is Neptunes time to rotate on its axis?
Neptune's rotation period takes 16hours and 17minutes to rotate on its axis.
What is the difference between a planets period of rotation and period of revolution?
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.
What is the difference between planets period of rotation and period of revolution?
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.
What is the difference between period of revolution and rotation?
period rotation: 1 rotation of the earth(1 day) period revolution: 1 year around the sun
How long does one rotation on it axis take for venus?
The rotation period of Venus is equal to about 243.02 Earth days.
