The size of the planet and the inertia it begins with. Inertia is the resistance to changing velocity (either speed or direction). All objects in the universe are already moving, so the planet, while moving, was caught in gravity of another object (like the Sun) and trapped in revolution. The amount of inertia, determined by mass, normally, influences how fast an object revolves.

The planets revolution from the sun?
Each planet in our solar system revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. The time it takes for a planet to complete one revolution around the sun is known as its orbital period. This period varies for each planet based on its distance from the sun.
What is a planetary revolution?
A revolution is the period it takes for the planet to revolve one time around the sun. Its otherwise known as the planet's year.
Which planet has the shortest period of revolution as measured relative to earths time?
The planet that has the shortest period of revolution is Mercury, which is 88 days. The planet with the longest revolution is Neptune, which is 165 years. Earth's revolution is the third shortest.
What is the period of a planets revolution can be used to calculate the planet?
The period of a planet's revolution is the time that it takes to complete one revolution around its axis of rotation relative to the background stars (also known as rotation period).
What is meant about rotation and revolution of a planet?
Rotation of a planet means the overall time of day and night, time for rotate on its own axis. In our earth 12 hours for night and 12 hour for day, total 24 hours. In Venus it takes 117 earth days, as a matter of fact it takes 225 earth days to complete its revolution. It is depends upon gravity. Revolution is time for round round the sun. 365 days and 6 hours in earth is called a year, that means it completed one revolution. The 6 hours is counted 24 hours that means 1 day in 4 years called a leap year. That one day is added to February as 29 days.
What is meant by rotation and revolution of a planet?
The rotation of a planet refers to the planet spinning like a top; a "revolution" is the time required for the planet's orbit around the Sun.
Does the planet with the shortest revolution have the shortest rotation?
No, the rotation of a planet on it's axis, or it's spin is not really related to the time it takes to orbit or revolve around the sun. For example, Mercury and Venus are the closest planets to the sun, yet they take a long time to rotate on their axis.
What is the difference between rotation and revolution with regard to the solar system?
Revolution is the time a planet takes to revolve around itself. Rotation is the time a planet takes to orbit the Sun.
The planets revolution from the sun?

Which planet with the period of revolution is closest to Earth's?
Venus with a revolution time of 224.7 Earth days

Mercury
How would you define revolution of Planets in the solar system?
The revolution of planets in the solar system refers to the motion of a planet in its orbit around the Sun. Each planet follows an elliptical path with the Sun at one of the foci. The time it takes for a planet to complete one revolution is known as its orbital period.
What is a planetary revolution?
A revolution is the period it takes for the planet to revolve one time around the sun. Its otherwise known as the planet's year.

What movement of the planet makes one year as a unit a time?
a revolution, that is, the amount of time it takes the planet to complete its journey around the sun.
