This planet requires 59-60 earth days to complete one rotation on its axis?
Mercury is probably the closest with a sidereal rotation period of 58.646 days
Which planet has the same length day as earth?
No planet really does have a day "the same length as Earth", but Mars definitely has the one that's the closest. The day length of Mars is just over half an hour longer than Earth's.
What planet has the most similar rotation period to Earth?
Mars has a rotational period (day) only slightly longer than Earth's 24 hours - at just over 24 hours 37 minutes.
Which one of these planet completes its rotation in 59-60 Earth days venus mercury mars Jupiter?
Rotation means the planet spinning about it axis. (Orbit the the path of the planet round the Sun). The planet Mercury has a rotational period of 58.646 Earth days. The planet Venus has a (retrograde) rotational period of 243.0185 Earth days. The planet Mars has a rotational period of 1.025957 Earth days. The planet Jupiter has a rotational period of 9.925 hours. Obviously Earth has a rotational period of 1 Earth day.
What is a planet period of rotation?
The period of rotation is the time required for a planet to spin around once on its axis. For Earth it is about 23 hours and 56 minutes.
Which planet has a rotation period closest in length to earth's rotation period?
Mars, with a rotation period of 24 hours 37 minutes 23 seconds (time taken for one spin on its axis relative to background stars).

Are there any planets with the same length of a day as earth?
The closest planet to Earth in terms of rotation period is Mars with a period of 24 hours 37 minutes 23 seconds. The second closest is Neptune at 16 hours.
What planet has a rotational period closest to Earth's?
Mars -- it takes 24 hours, 39 minutes, and 35.244 seconds for a complete rotation.
What is period of rotation and revolution of Venus?
Venus' period of rotation is 243 Earth days. Its period of revolution is 224. 7 Earth days. The revolution period is the length of a year in Earth days on Venus. This planet is a terrestrial planet.
What is Mercury's rotation period and what does rotation mean?
mercury's rotation period is 58.647 earth days. a rotation is when the planet turns around on its axis, like what the earth does once every day.
Which planet has the same length day as earth?
No planet really does have a day "the same length as Earth", but Mars definitely has the one that's the closest. The day length of Mars is just over half an hour longer than Earth's.
Rotational period of mercury?
mercury is the first planet closest to the sun which makes it the hottest. its period of revolution is 88 days.
How do Jupiter's density and period of rotation compare to Earth's?
Jupiter is less dense and has a shorter period of rotation.
What planet has the most similar rotation period to Earth?
Mars has a rotational period (day) only slightly longer than Earth's 24 hours - at just over 24 hours 37 minutes.
The planet with the largest rotation?
The planet with the largest (or longest) rotation period is Venus, at 243 Earth days (retrograde, meaning clockwise, instead of counterclockwise like the Earth).
