The outer planets all rotate faster than the inner planets. Each of them has a rotational period shorter than an Earth Day. All of the inner planets have rotational periods longer than one Earth day. The outer planets are mostly made up of hydrogen, helim, and ice, and they are much larger than the inner planets which are mostly iron and various types of rock.

What is the difference between planets period of rotation and period of revolution?
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.
What planet has a large angle that exists between this planets magnetic field and its rotation axis?
Uranus.
Which planets orbit in a retrograde rotation?
The planets Venus, Uranus and Pluto rotate in retrograde rotation. Hope that helped ~ :-))
A fundamental difference between Earth and the other planets is?

What is the difference of a planets period of rotation and period of revolution?

What is the difference between orbits and rotation?
well when something is orbiting a planet that means an object is basically circling the planet due to its gravitational pull. Rotation is the planets rotation not the object surrounding circling it.
Which planet is basically laying on its side?
The planet Uranus's rotation is sideways compared to the rotations of all the other planets and to it's orbit around the sun.
What is the difference between a planet's rotation and its revolution?
The planets rotate around their rotational axes and revolve around the sun.
What force keeps the planets in rotation?
The force that keeps all of our planets in rotation is gravity.
Why earth have its rotation?
because of gravitational force of attraction between the earth and other planets
What planet has a large angle that exists between this planets magnetic field and its rotation axis?
Uranus.
What two planets have a unique rotations?
Every planet has. No two are the same.
Which planets orbit in a retrograde rotation?
The planets Venus, Uranus and Pluto rotate in retrograde rotation. Hope that helped ~ :-))
