What factors would affect the length of the day?
The length of the day would change if either the rotational speed of the the planet or the orbital distance from the sun changed. However, if you mean what factors affect the length of daylight, then that is different.
Why is the length of day and night vary from planet to planet?
Because of the difference of speed the planet is spinning, for example Neptune spins in speed greater than 2000 kph so its day and night is fast.That simply means that some planets rotate faster than others.
What is the difference between planets that rotations time are shorter than earth to planets rotation time that are longer than earth?
The outer planets all rotate faster than the inner planets. Each of them has a rotational period shorter than an Earth day. All of the inner planets have rotational periods longer than one Earth day. The outer planets are mostly made up of hydrogen, helim, and ice, and they are much larger than the inner planets which are mostly iron and various types of rock.
Do the gas planets rotate slower or faster than earth?
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.
Does the sun's position in the sky affect the length of daylight?
Yes, the sun's position in the sky affects the length of daylight. The angle at which the sun's rays hit the Earth's surface changes throughout the day due to the Earth's rotation, which in turn affects the length of daylight hours.
What is the relationship between earth day length and the distance from the sun?
There is no direct relationship between the rotation of a planet (which governs day length) and a planets distance from the sun. The nature of the planets spin is more to do with the formation of the system early on, by large impacts of the more numerous bodies that would have been around.
What factors would affect the length of the day?
The length of the day would change if either the rotational speed of the the planet or the orbital distance from the sun changed. However, if you mean what factors affect the length of daylight, then that is different.
How does the length of day time and night time affect the season?
The length of day does not affect the season.
What planets length of the day is 9 hours?
Mercury.
What would you define the length of a planets day?
by the rotation of the planet
Does longitude affect the day length?
No.
What is the suns length of day?
I think that the sun doesn't have any length of day, because of the heat and how the planets revolve around the sun.
What two planets have similar length of day?
Earth has a 24 hour day and Mars has a 25 hour day.
What is the planets length on the day?
23 Hours 57 Minutes and 14 Seconds
What is the difference of The rotational period of the inner and outer planets?
Rotational time of the planets is random (the length of the planet's day), but the outer planets do spin faster than the inner planets.
Does length of day light affect roosters being fertile?
no
Do any planets have longer days or years?
No two planets in our solar system have the same length of day or length of year. Compared with Earth, these planets have longer years: Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. These have much longer days than Earth: Mercury and Venus. Mars has a day that's slightly longer than Earth's day. Depending on the particular definition of "day" that is used, two planets have a day that's longer than than that planet's year. They are Mercury (solar day) and Venus (sidereal day).
