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 planet rotates on it's side?
Uranus is the planet that rotates on its side. It takes Uranus 84 Earth years to fully revolve around the Sun.
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 once every 243 Earth days and thus is the slowest.
What is a planet that has a rotation in the opposite direction of the earth?
Venus is the planet that rotates in the opposite direction to all the other planets.
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.
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 as fast as earth?
Mars
Which planets have an axis besides earth?
