When a planet that appears to spin counterclockwise when viewed from its north pole has what kind of rotation?
Any planet, moon or object that rotates in the opposite to us (Well we have to have a common denominator) is said to be in retrograde rotation (or retrograde motion)
But most objects in the solar system appear to spin counterclockwise when viewed from above the north pole, so this is normal rotation, not retrograde.
What else can I help you with?
A planet that appears to spin counterclockwise when viewed from its north pole has a?
This is the definition of prograde rotation. In the solar system, a rotating body seen from its North Pole will appear to be spinning counterclockwise. This is different then retrograde rotation in which a body spins in the opposite direction.
What is the spin of a planet or moon as seen from above a planets pole?
The spin of a planet or moon, when observed from above its pole, appears as a rotation around its axis. This rotation can be clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the orientation of the axis relative to its orbit. For instance, Earth rotates counterclockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. The spin direction is an important characteristic, as it influences the planet's weather patterns and day-night cycle.
Which way does the earth move clockwise or anticlockwise?
The Earth rotates counterclockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This counterclockwise rotation is also known as west to east.
Does the moon rotate clockwise or counterclockwise?
The moon rotates counterclockwise just like Earth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What kind of rotation is called prograde?
Having a rotational or orbital movement that is the same as most bodies within a celestial system. In our solar system, prograde movement for both rotating and orbiting bodies counterclockwise when viewed from a vantage point above the Earth's north pole.
A planet that appears to spin counterclockwise when viewed from its north pole has?
It has a retrograde rotation.

In which direction is the Earth's rotation when viewed from above the North Pole, spinning clockwise or counterclockwise?
When viewed from above the North Pole, the Earth's rotation is counterclockwise.
What is the spin of a planet or moon as seen from above a planets pole?
The spin of a planet or moon, when observed from above its pole, appears as a rotation around its axis.

The spin direction is an important characteristic, as it influences the planet's weather patterns and day-night cycle.
What rotation does a planet have if it spins clockwise?
The general direction of rotation of everything in the solar system is anticlockwise (counterclockwise) when viewed from an imaginary distant point above the Earth's North pole.If a planet spins the other way, clockwise, we call that sort of rotation "retrograde".
Is the crank rotation of the Jeep straight 6 clockwise or counterclockwise viewed from the front?
Clockwise
When viewed from above its north pole a body that moves in a counter clockwise directions is said to have?
Retrogade rotation
All the planets in your solar system rotate counterclockwise except for which planet?
Every planet except Venus and Uranus in our solar system rotates counterclockwise as viewed from above the North Pole of the planet. Venus has a slow clockwise rotation and Uranus rotates on its side.
Which planet appears red when viewed from Earth?
planet x
Which planet rotates counterclockwise?
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
Is the earth's rotation prograde or retrograde?
The Earth's rotation is prograde, meaning it rotates in the same direction as its orbit around the Sun. This is also known as "counterclockwise" when viewed from above the North Pole.
What is the dominant mode of rotation of the planets called?
The dominant mode of rotation of planets, where they rotate counterclockwise on their axis as viewed from above the North Pole, is called prograde rotation.
