Mars sidereal rotation is 1.025 day

Earths sidereal rotation is 0.997 day.

Mars rotates on its axis at a speed similar to Earth's,averagiung 25 degrees,although in the past that angle has been as great as 60 degrees. This means that Mars,like Earth,has distinct seasons

Why is there daytime and night time on mars?

Daytime and nighttime on Mars occur just like on Earth, due to the planet rotating on its axis.

The atmosphere on Mars is also much thinner than Earth's, which affects the distribution of sunlight on the planet.


Do skyscrapers slow down earths rotation?

Skyscrapers have a negligible impact on the Earth's rotation. Their size and mass are not significant enough to affect the Earth's rotation speed or axis. Other factors like earthquakes, glaciers melting, and ocean currents play a much larger role in influencing the Earth's rotation.
