Mars rotates in about 24 hours and 37 minutes.
Earth rotates in about 23 hours and 56 minutes.
These times are called "sidereal " days.
Earth's "solar day" is 24 hours.
Mars has a solar day of about 24 hours and 39 minutes.
The solar day is a bit longer because it depends on a planet's orbital motion as well as it's rotation on its axis.
Finally Mars orbits the Sun in about 687 Earth days (a Martian "year").
Earth of course orbits in about 365 days.
Mars. Although its year is significantly longer than an Earth year (time taken to orbit the Sun), its day length is very similar. It's slightly longer at about 24 hours and 37 mins. (That is the time taken for the planet to spin once on its axis, called a "sidereal" day.)
Mars has a rotation period of about 24.6 hours, which is similar to Earth's day length. However, Mars has a longer year due to its longer orbit around the Sun, which takes about 687 Earth days.
A Martian year is equal to 1.8809 Earth years (686.971 days), or 1 year, 320 days, and 18.2 hours 12 secondsbla bla bla bla bla
Just short of 687 Earth days in one martian year (686.971).
In Martian years, you would be about 10 and 3/4.
Mars, with a orbital period of around 687 days, almost two Earth years (1.88 earth years).
A year on Mars is about 687 Earth days long, which is roughly 1.88 times longer than a year on Earth. This is because Mars takes longer to orbit the sun due to its greater distance from the sun compared to Earth.
The length of year on Mars is 686.98 Earth days or 1.88 Earth years.
One year on Mars is about 687 earth days compared to the the 365 days in a year on Earth.
The Martian year is about 687 Earth days.
Mars period of revolution around the sun, its orbit, is 686.971 Earth days long, or 1.88 Earth years.
It would be longer because Mars is further away from the sun and orbits slower than the Earth; therefore will take longer to complete a full revolution.
687 Earth days
The length of the Martian Year is 1.88 times the length of Earth's year.
A year here on planet Earth is 365 and a quarter days long. A "relative length of year" can only be given by comparison with some other object's year. Since we live on the Earth, we usually compare the years of other planets to that of Earth, rather than the other way around. So the year of Mars is 1.88 Earth years and that of Venus is 0.615 Earth years. The year of Earth is 1.000 Earth years.
Mars with an orbital period of 1.88 years.
Mars. Although its year is significantly longer than an Earth year (time taken to orbit the Sun), its day length is very similar. It's slightly longer at about 24 hours and 37 mins. (That is the time taken for the planet to spin once on its axis, called a "sidereal" day.)
