A year is shorter on Venus than on Earth. A year is the time taken for a planet to orbit the Sun. Venus has a smaller orbit and a higher orbital speed.
Is a day on venus longer than a year on venus?
Because Venus rotates very slowly, with one rotation taking longer than one orbit. It takes it 224 Earth days to orbit the sun but 243 Earth days to fully rotate. Yes, but the "solar day" is only 117 Earth days,of course.
Why is venus' day longer than its earth year?
