The time it takes a planet to rotate (spin) on its own axis is called its day. Earth has a day of 24 hours. Jupiters is the smallest in the solar system at about 9 hours 55 minutes; Venus takes about 243 days to rotate once.
Year. did you know that a Venian (Venus) day is longer than it's year?
revolution or if you are on Mars you would call it a martian year jovian year for Jupiter ect
it is its period of revolution and that's a year
Its year, which (except for the Earth, the moon, and a few Earth-orbit asteroids) will be different from ouryear.
For a planet in our solar system, one revolution around the Sun is called a "year." Each planet has a different year. As you know, Earth takes 365.25 days to follow its orbit around the Sun, though Jupiter's year is about 4335 earth days. It all depends on how long it takes each one to revolve around the Sun.
Mars takes around 687 days to make one orbit of our sun.
It depends on a few things. The orbital period is a function o the planets mass and it's distance from the sun - see Keplers laws of planetary motion. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun and takes 88 days to make one orbit. Neptune is the furthest planet and takes nearly 165 years to make one orbit.
A year is a measure of the time it takes a planet to make one complete circle (circuit) around the Sun. Each planet in our Solar system has a different length year. To make things simple, astronomers can use the number of Earth years a planet takes to orbit the Sun once. Everyone understands time expressed in Earth days.
The velocity of a planet around the sun is inversely related to the distance from the sun. So the slowest planets are the ones farthest out. If you consider Pluto a planet, it takes the longest time to revolve around the sun. If you do not consider Pluto a planet, then Neptune would be the farthest planet from the sun and takes the longest time to revolve around the sun.

You suck questions!
This is known as the planets orbital period. For the Earth, this is one year.
This is known as the planets orbital period. For the Earth, this is one year.
The planet that takes 88 days to make one trip around the sun is Mercury. It is the smallest planet in the solar system.
For a planet in our solar system, one revolution around the Sun is called a "year." Each planet has a different year. As you know, Earth takes 365.25 days to follow its orbit around the Sun, though Jupiter's year is about 4335 earth days. It all depends on how long it takes each one to revolve around the Sun.
Venus, the second planet from the sun, takes 224.7 Earth days to make a single orbit around the sun. This is about 0.62 Earth years.
It's called the planet's "YEAR".
Neptune, the furthest planet from the sun, takes around 164 years to make one orbit of the sun (164.79132 years).
Neptune takes the longest as it is the farthest away.
It is called the planet's period.
The planet Mars, which is the fourth planet from the sun, takes 1.88 Earth years to make one full orbit around the sun.
