Day
Mars, with a rotation period of 24 hours 37 minutes 23 seconds (time taken for one spin on its axis relative to background stars).
Ceres has a rotation period of about 9 hours, meaning it completes one full rotation on its axis in that amount of time. Its revolution period around the sun is approximately 4.6 Earth years, as it orbits the sun at an average distance of about 2.8 astronomical units.
A planet's period of rotation refers to the time it takes for the planet to complete one full rotation on its axis. This is what determines the length of a day on that planet. For example, Earth's period of rotation is approximately 24 hours, which is why we have a 24-hour day.
The moon takes approximately 27.3 days to complete one rotation on its axis. This period is known as its sidereal rotation period and is the same as its orbital period around the Earth.
The length of an Earth day is determined by the time required for approximately one full rotation of the Earth on its axis. It takes approximately 24 hours for the Earth to complete one rotation, resulting in a day-night cycle. This rotation period is the basis for our concept of a day.
It takes Pluto 6.4 earth days to complete one rotation.
The period of earth's rotation on its axis is 23hours56minutes4seconds of mean solar time.
the moon
Mars, with a rotation period of 24 hours 37 minutes 23 seconds (time taken for one spin on its axis relative to background stars).
Mercury completes one rotation every 58.6462 earth days, or 0.160675 earth years. Rotation refers to the time a planet takes to spin around its axis, commonly called a day.Revolution is the term used in reference to the period of time taken to complete one full orbit -- a year. Mercury completes one revolution every 87.9693 earth days, or 0.241012 earth years.This means that, if you lived on Mercury, your life expectancy would be 327.2 years; it also means that there would be exactly 1.5 days in a year.
The moon completes one orbital revolution around the earth in 27.32 days. The moon also completes one rotation on its axis in exactly the same time.
Mercury's rotation period is 59 Earth days.
Mars, with a rotation period of 24 hours 37 minutes 23 seconds (time taken for one spin on its axis relative to background stars).
Mercury's period of rotation, or the time it takes to complete one full rotation on its axis, is 58.6 Earth days. Its period of revolution, or the time it takes to orbit the Sun, is about 88 Earth days. This means that one day on Mercury (rotation) is longer than one year on Mercury (revolution).

The Moon completes one orbit around the Earth in approximately 27.3 days.
In the time it takes Mercury to complete one rotation, Neptune rotates 87.37 times.
