Because Jupiter is so big, it spins faster.
Orbiting faster than any planet in our Solar System, Mercury goes around the Sun about every 88 Earth days. it is also the smallest planet, and the closest to the Sun. Mercury has no known satellites. Venus orbits the Sun about every 224.7 Earth days. It is the second-closest planet to the Sun, and also has no known satellites.
Venus and Mercury rotate slowly, much more slowly than Earth or Mars.
Gas planets typically rotate faster than Earth. For example, Jupiter rotates the quickest with a day length of about 10 hours, Saturn has a day length of about 10.7 hours, Uranus about 17 hours, and Neptune about 16 hours. In comparison, Earth rotates once every 24 hours.
Venus is occasionally brighter than jupiter
Jupiter is far bigger than Venus. In fact, Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. However, because Venus is closer to the sun and closer to the Earth, it shines more brightly than Jupiter does.
The diameter of Venus is only 12,103 km, while the diameter of Jupiter is 142,984 km. And so when you compare the two planets, Jupiter is 11.8 times bigger than Venus.
The planets closer to the Sun than Jupiter are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. So, four planets are closer than Jupiter.
Jupiter's gravity is about 2.5 times stronger than Venus' gravity. This difference is due to Jupiter's larger mass and size compared to Venus. On Jupiter, an object would weigh 2.5 times more than it would on Venus.
Yes.
1. Venus is closer to Earth (40 million km versus 392 million km for Jupiter) 2. Venus receives more sunlight as it is 7 times closer to the sun (50 times as much light for a given area). 3. Venus reflects more light by area than Jupiter (Venus 65% versus 52% for Jupiter)
Quite obviously, yes.
That's a matter of opinion.
