No, the planet with the shortest revolution does not necessarily have the shortest rotation. Revolution refers to the time it takes for a planet to complete one orbit around the sun, while rotation refers to the time it takes for a planet to complete one full spin on its axis. These two periods can be different for each planet.
Mercury is the shortest and Neptune is the longest
(The year is proportional to the distance to the power 1.5) In our solar system, Mercury has the shortest year. Neptune has the longest.
The real "planet" with the longest year is Neptune It takes 165 Earth Years. Mercury has the shortest year. It is closest to the Sun and therefore the Suns gravity acts upon it with more strength
Mercury has the 2nd longest "sidereal day" with a sidereal rotation period of 58.646 Earth days. The longest "sidereal day" day is Venus, with a sidereal rotation period of 243.018 Earth daysIf you use the "solar day" as your definition of "day", the order is reversed. Mercury then has the longest day and Venus has the second longest day.
Jupiter in the planet with the shortest rotation time, with a day approximately 12 hours long.
