How long is a day on Jupiter compared to a day on earth?

Answer 1

Jupiter rotates very fast and get right round in just under ten hours. All that speed and energy produces terrible storms like the Great Red Spot which is big enough to swallow up the Earth many times over, and it's been going for hundreds of years, so it is not a safe place to be.

Answer 2

Venus takes 224.65 days to complete its orbit around the sun, this is a little less than a year on Earth. But instead of a similare rotational period to Earths 24 hour day, Venus takes 243 Earth DAYS to rotate once.

In other words a DAY on Venus takes more time than a YEAR.

This points out that at some time in its history Venus colided with something else, causing its slow rotation. This also gives it the slowest day in the Solar System. Even stranger, Venus rotates backward compared to the other planets in our Solar System. If you could stand on the surface of Venus, which you cant because it is the most unhabitable place in our Solar System (except for the Sun itself), the Sun would rise in the West and then set in the East.

Answer 3

one jupiter day is about .416666667 earth days, or 10 hours

Answer 4

A jovian day lasts for 16 hours, so less sleep!

Answer 5

A day on Jupiter is approximately 10 hours long, whereas a day on Earth is about 24 hours long. This difference in rotation speed is due to Jupiter's much larger size and faster rotation.

Answer 6

About 10 hours (9 hours, 56 minutes)

Answer 7

11.86 Earth years.

Answer 8

4383 days
