Which planets orbit in a retrograde rotation?
Venus and Uranus are two planets in our solar system that have a retrograde rotation, meaning they rotate in the opposite direction of their orbit around the Sun. This retrograde motion is quite unique compared to the other planets which have a prograde rotation.
How many planets rotate clockwisegive the names?
Within the nine old planets, 3 of them have retrograde rotation: rotate clockwise (westward). They are Venus, Uranus and Pluto. Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune have direct rotation: rotate anti-clockwise (eastward). All the nine planets revolve around the sun eastward or anti clockwise.
What are the two movement of the planets?
orbit and rotation there is also a wobble or tilt that can fluctuate
What is the sun's period of rotation?
The sun has two types of period of rotation, the sidereal rotation period and the synodic rotation period. The sidereal rotation period is 24.47 days. The synodic rotation period is 26.24 days.
What is half of a full rotation?
Half of a full rotation is 180 degrees. In terms of circular motion, this represents a straight line or a semicircle, dividing the circle into two equal parts. In radians, half of a full rotation is π radians.
What are two unique things about the rotation of Jupiter?
Two unique things about Jupiter's rotation: Jupiter's rotation is slower near the poles. Jupiter has the fastest rotation period in our solar system.
What are two things in nature that are periodic?
The rotation of the galaxies, and the rotation of the electron.
What are two important things gears do?
Change speed of rotation. change direction of rotation.
What are 2 unique things about octopuses habitat?

What two planets surround Jupiter?
Jupiters orbit is between Mars and Saturn's orbit. Jupiters orbit can also be said to be within the orbits of Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
What are 2 things that are unique to Marie Curie?
Her husband, and her two children.
Which planets orbit in a retrograde rotation?
Venus and Uranus are two planets in our solar system that have a retrograde rotation, meaning they rotate in the opposite direction of their orbit around the Sun. This retrograde motion is quite unique compared to the other planets which have a prograde rotation.
What two things determine the gravity of an object?
that's a difficult one but wait have you hear of earth rotation that maintains gravity.
Is jupiters axis tilted more than that of other planets?
In comparing the angles between the planets' rotational axes and their orbital planes, Jupiter deviates from the perpendicular by only 3.13°. Only two planets have less tilt: Mercury and Venus (Venus rotates backwards; it's called a retrograde rotation).
How many rotation symmetry does a diamond have?
A diamond has two rotation symmetry. It is possible to have a diamond that does have four of rotation symmetry.
What two motions does the have?
revolution and rotation
Can Jupiters gas affect its rings?
Jupiters' gases are confined to the planet by its massive gravity. The rocks and ice are trapped by the same gravity. The two do not interact. Some of the material in the rings falls out of orbit due to loss of forward momentum and fall into Jupiter. They are short lived and disintegrate.
