Is it nightime when the earth faces the sun?

No, it is not nighttime when the Earth faces the Sun; it is daytime in those areas. The Earth rotates on its axis, and as it turns, different parts of the planet experience sunlight or darkness. When a location is facing the Sun, it experiences daylight, while the opposite side of the Earth is in nighttime.

What is venus 's time to orbit the sun?

The orbit of Venus is the most circular in the entire Solar System. In mathematical terms, the eccentricity of Venus is less than 0.01. A year on Venus lasts 223 days. As Venus travels around the Sun, it ranges in distance from 107 million km to 109 million km. The average distance is 108 million km. This is 72% the distance of Earth to the Sun ... Venus can get as close as 40 million km from the Earth. This is called an inferior conjunction every 584 days, on average ... One of the most unusual things about Venus is that it rotates backwards from the rest of the planets in the Solar System. Seen from above, all of the planets rotate counter-clockwise, but Venus turns clockwise. Of course, Venus orbits so slowly that its day is actually longer than its year. A day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days, while its year is 224.7 Earth days

Does the moon play any part in keeping the earth core hot?

The tides created by the moon effect not just the ocean, but the planet itself, slowly kneading it as the earth turns. This does have some heating effect. The primary heat of the earth, however, is due to leftover heat from it's formation, and the radioactive elements present in the planet decaying over time.

What is the length of a day on Venus'?

Due to an event early in its history, the planet Venus turns clockwise rather than counter-clockwise like the other planets, and it turns very slowly. It takes 243 earth days to make one rotation, which is longer than it takes to travel around the Sun (about 225 Earth days). The combination of these motions, however, produces a "solar day" (sunrise to sunrise, if you could see it) of about 116.75 Earth days. That gives any point on Venus a "daytime" of about 58 days, and a very dark but still hot "nighttime" of 58 earth days. (The planet's dense atmosphere distributes the solar heat.)
