What else can I help you with?
What is the planet with a reverse rotation?
Venus rotates "upside down" - meaning it rotates on its axis the opposite direction to its orbit around the sun. Uranus orbits somewhat on its side at an angle about 98 degrees to the ecliptic and is also considered retrograde.
Which planet rotates the slowest?
Venus rotates the slowest among the planets in our solar system, taking about 243 Earth days to complete one rotation. Additionally, Venus rotates in the opposite direction to its orbit around the Sun, making it unique compared to the other planets.
Is earth considered as a satellite?
Yes. The Earth rotates around the Sun, and therefore it is a satellite of the Sun. Anything that rotates around something else can be cositered a satellite.
What is retrograde motion as applied to a planet?
The "apparent" reverse or backwards motion of a planet as observed from Earth. The innermost planets appear to have a retrograde motion when viewed from Earth.
If a planet has an obliquity of 180 degrees that means it rotates?
It rotates in the "retrograde" direction. "Obliquity" is another way of talking about the tilt of a planet's axis. You might say the planet is "upside down". The direction of the rotation is called "retrograde" ("backwards" compared with the Earth's rotation). Note: there is a complication here about how astronomers define the North pole of a planet, but that's probably an unnecessary complication for most people.
What is the name of the planet where time goes backwards?
Time can never go backwards. You may be thinking of a planet which rotates in the opposite direction to Earth. Venus and Uranus do this.
A planet has a very long day compared with earth .What does that tell you about the movement of that planet?
It means the planet rotates slower. To be precise, the angular velocity is less.
Is the Earth spinning backwards?
No, the Earth is not spinning backwards. It rotates on its axis in a consistent direction, which causes day and night.
What planet rotates as fast as earth?
Mars
What is the planet with a reverse rotation?
Venus rotates "upside down" - meaning it rotates on its axis the opposite direction to its orbit around the sun. Uranus orbits somewhat on its side at an angle about 98 degrees to the ecliptic and is also considered retrograde.
Is the Earth rotating backwards?
No, the Earth is not rotating backwards. It rotates on its axis in a consistent direction from west to east, which is counterclockwise when viewed from above the North Pole.
Which planets have an axis besides earth?
Pretty much every planet has an axis, because an axis is what a planet rotates around. Any planet that rotates has an axis, and pretty much every planet known rotates.
What does a planet rotates on?
A planet rotates on its axis a point which travels through the north and the south of the planet. On earth the axis is found at the north and south pole of the earth.
What planet rotates on its side other than Earth?
Uranus. (Earth is not like that.)
Compared to Earth Jupiter is much smaller has no moon or rotates more quickly?
it rotates quicker
Length of year venus?
it takes 225 earth days to make on revolution around the sun
What planet rotates on its side as seen from earth?
Uranus rotates on its side as seen from Earth. Its axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of approximately 98 degrees, causing it to appear as though it is rotating on its side compared to most other planets in our solar system.
