No planet exists for that question.

The nearest is Venus who's "day" is 243 Earth days, while it's "year" is 224 Earth Days.

---------------------

Im not quite shure of that, but i do know that one year in Saturn comes to 29.5 earth years.hope this helps

If a planet orbits the sun but does not rotate on its axis at all how long would a day be on that planet?

That depends on what you're asking. If it has no rotation, as in, it faces a fixed point in space, the day and night would each be half the length of its orbital period, or year. For the Earth, that would be 6 months. However, that is pretty much impossible. What normally happens is that for various reasons, planetary rotation slows until one face remains tidally locked toward the star. In that case, one side has perpetual day, the other perpetual night. There's also a 3:2 resonance where the planet appears to rotate backward, like Venus.


What location always has the same length of day?

Everywhere: the length of the day is always 24 hours irrespective of latitude & longitude since the angular rotation of the planet is 360º per 24hours. The DAYLIGHT length changes seasonally and proportionally to latitude, but the DAY length is constant.


What is it called when a planet complete spin on its axis?

A planet completing one full rotation on its axis is called a "day." This is what determines the length of a day on that planet.


Which planet has the same length day as earth?

No planet really does have a day "the same length as Earth", but Mars definitely has the one that's the closest. The day length of Mars is just over half an hour longer than Earth's.


How does a day on the moon compare to a year on the moon?

A day on the moon is about 29.5 Earth days long, which is roughly equivalent to a lunar month. A year on the moon, however, is about the same length as a year on Earth, as it takes the moon approximately 27.3 Earth days to complete one orbit around the Earth.

No


What does the term day mean for a planet?

In general terms a day for a planet is the time taken for the planet to make on rotation on its own axis. Likewise a year for a planet is the time taken for the planet to make one orbit (rotation round) its primary star. Where a planet is tidally locked to its primary, the day length and the year length will be the same, such that the planet keeps one face permanently towards it primary (like the Moon does to the Earth).


Is this true or false the length of a planet's year is determined by how fast it spins?

False, the speed it spins on it's axis determinds the length of day. The speed it rotates the sun determinds the length of it's year.


Which planet has a day almost the same length of time as earth?

mars


How does the movement of the earth affect the length of its day and its year?

the tilt of the planet


Which planet's day is closest in length to its year?

The planet Mercury has a day that is almost the same length as its year. Mercury's rotation period is about 59 Earth days, which is very close to its orbital period around the Sun of about 88 Earth days. This means that one day on Mercury is almost as long as one year on Mercury.


How many hrs in the shortest day of the year?

That depends where you are on the planet. the length of day is shorter the further away from the equator you are.


How are the length of the day and year related to Earth's movement through space?

WELL THE LENGTH OF THE DAY IS RELATED TO THE Rotation AND REVOLUTION OF THE PLANET BECAUSE THE PLANET HAS LENGTH BUT IT MIGHT NOT HAVE THE SAME THING AS OUR LENGTH AND IT HAS THE SAME ROTATION AND REVOLUTION.WHAT DO YOU YOUNG GUYS AND LADIES THINK ABOUT MY ANSWER ?PLEASE COMMENT ON IT I WILL APPROACHED THAT BY.


What planet has the greatest similarity between the length of its day and the length of its year?

Venus. The "day" (rotation period or sidereal day) is longer than the year! Venus Sidereal day: 243 Earth days. Venus Year: 224.7 Earth days.
