What force keeps the planets in rotation?
The force that keeps all of our planets in rotation is gravity.
Explain what is meant by Venus retrograde rotation?
Oddly, Venus rotates from east to west, the opposite direction from most other planets and moons. This type of rotation is called retrograde rotation, from the Latin words for "moving backward".
What unusual about Venus rotation?
its rotation is opposite of all the other planets.
What are the planets axis of rotation?
22512
What is the spinning of planets on its axis?
rotation
What is the planets spin on its axis?
rotation
Which two planets have the same rotation?
Earth and Mars are the planets in this solar system with similar rotation speed of approximately 24 hr.
Which planets orbit in a retrograde rotation?
Venus and Uranus are two planets in our solar system that have a retrograde rotation, meaning they rotate in the opposite direction of their orbit around the Sun. This retrograde motion is quite unique compared to the other planets which have a prograde rotation.
What is the time of revolution the planets?
The period of rotation for each of the planets is as follows - the sidereal rotation (rotation time against background stars); PlanetSidereal rotational periodMercury58.646225Venus-243.0187Earth0.99726957Mars1.02595675Jupiter0.41007Saturn0.426Uranus-0.71833Neptune0.67125
What is the dominant mode of rotation of the planets called?
The dominant mode of rotation of planets, where they rotate counterclockwise on their axis as viewed from above the North Pole, is called prograde rotation.
Do all planets turn?
All planets turn on their axis. This is called the planet's rotation; one complete rotation is equal to one day on that planet.
Type of rotation of planets or moon that has a counter clockwise spin?
Counter clockwise rotation is also known as retrograde rotation. This type of rotation is less common and can be seen in some planets and moons, such as Venus and Uranus.
