The number of times the earth rotates "under the moon" is the same as
the number of times you see the moon cross your street or your driveway
in 24 hours.
It's 26.32 times in 27.32 days. That averages out to 0.9634 times in 24 hours. (rounded)
The planet Jupiter takes just under 10 hours to rotate once (9.925 Earth hours). The planet Saturn takes just over 10 hours. (10 hours 14 minutes at its equator).
A full rotation of Earth is considered one day if only the planet is observed, therefore the Earth will rotate 360 degrees in a day. If the rotation of the Earth is taken into account with the orbit around the sun, the Earth will rotate just under 361 degrees per day.
The sidereal rotation period of the Moon is just a bit under 27 days and 8 hours.
Jupiter rotates the fastest, taking less than 10 hours to complete one rotation on it's axis. Saturn comes in second, taking just over 10 hours to complete one rotation. Uranus takes about 18 hours and Neptune takes about 19 hours. Earth, Mars, Mercury, and Venus all take at least a full Earth day to rotate once.
No, it does not take exactly 24 hours for Earth to rotate on its axis. Earth actually takes approximately 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds to complete one full rotation, which is known as a sidereal day. However, due to the Earth's orbit around the Sun, a solar day, which is based on the position of the Sun in the sky, is about 24 hours long. This slight difference is why we have leap years to account for the extra time.
That's a planet's 'day'. On the Earth - that's just under 24 hours (approx. 23 hours 56 minutes' On mercury, it's 88 days !
Jupiter rotates fastest, in just under ten hours.
It takes about 29.5 Earth years for Saturn to revolve around the Sun.
The planet Jupiter takes just under 10 hours to rotate once (9.925 Earth hours). The planet Saturn takes just over 10 hours. (10 hours 14 minutes at its equator).
A little under a day; about 23 hours and 56 minutes.
Answer #1:It takes just under 24 hours for the Earth to rotate once on its axis.So in a two-week period (14 days)it would be 14 complete rotations.================================Answer #2:It takes 23.9344696 hours (rounded) for the Earth to rotate on its axis.Two weeks means 14 days of 24 hours each. So in a period of two weeks,the earth makes 14.038331 complete rotations. None of this has anythingto do with the number of days in a year.To put it another way, the Earth completes 14 rotations about 55minutes 3secondsbefore the two weeks has ended. That's why two weeks from today, any starwill reach the same place in the sky about an hour earlier than it gets there tonight.
A full rotation of Earth is considered one day if only the planet is observed, therefore the Earth will rotate 360 degrees in a day. If the rotation of the Earth is taken into account with the orbit around the sun, the Earth will rotate just under 361 degrees per day.
The moon takes just under 27 days 8 hours to orbit the Earth once.
Phobos is tidally locked; its rotational period and orbital period are the same (a little under 7 hours 40 minutes).
A day on Jupiter is just under 10 hours long
The earth turning fully on it's axis is called a day. it turns on it's axis just under 7 times a week. one turn is in fact not 24 hours but about 23 hrs and 54mins.
