What is the speed of rotation of Mars?
The equatorial rotational speed for the planet Mars is about 868.22 km/hr or 540 mph. This is far slower than the rotation of Earth (1674.4 km/hr), giving the two planets roughly the same period of rotation (Mars day = 24.6 Earth hours).
Why does a satellite travel over different parts of the earth?
Because most satellites are not 'geostationary'. A geostationary satellite orbits the Earth at the same speed that the Earth spins on its axis - such as the GPS grid, or TV relay satellites. Most satellites travel faster or slower than the Earth spins.
How is a planetary day on Mars different from one on Earth?
Mars spins slower than earth
Does venus travel throught space faster than earth?
Earth spins faster than Venus.Here's a link for information:http://www.nasa.gov/worldbook/venus_worldbook.html
Why is a day longer on earth than Saturn?
A "Day" relates to the rotation of the planet. The giant Saturn spins around, or rotates, once every 10 hours and 45 minutes. So it's "Day" is only 10 hours 45 minutes (earth hours) long. Whereas Earth spins slower so its day is longer.
Earth spins on its axis every?
24 hours
Which planet spins as fast as the Earth?
Mars is about the closest to the Earth's rotation among the planets in our solar system. Earth spins in 24 hours; Mars takes 24 hours 40 minutes.
Earth spins on an axis but which part of earth spins the slowest?
The Earth's rotation
Why don't things fly off the surface of the earth when it spins at such a high speed?
1.Earth has Strong Gravity. 2.Earth doesn't spins so fast!
What spins on its axis 0nce every 24 hours?
Earth.
If earth spins once each day what is the speed of spinning in km?
it spins and aprox. 100km every DAY
How fast earth spins km per hour?
It depends on what latitude you are at but the equatorial rotational speed is 1,670.5 km/hr
