Because as much as we Know/Learn the more we realize that we have learned/know nothing. As much as i love science unfortunately the only TRUE reality is that MOST of what we think we know is only speculation and is still not concrete fact. So to sum it up I would not disrespect you by trying to answer that question with a rotation and gravity answer as it was taught/explained to me. Take a look at this to get the TEXT BOOK ANSWER and good luck!!!!

Is Mars round?
The planet Mars is round in shape. All of the planets in our solar system are orbits. The gravitational pull of the sun has formed the planets to be around.
Do other planets have landforms?
yes, because they are round.
When the moon is completely illuminated and perfectly round it is a?
Full Moon
How are the inner planets different from the outer planets in size and make up?
Outer planets are made up of gas and dust particles, have thicker atmospheres and are bigger due to their place in orbit around the sun, while inner planets are mostly solid particles, warmer, and closer to the sun because of their gravitational attraction to it.
Are asteroids bigger or smaller than planets?
Asteroids, by definition, are much smaller than planets. That's one reason why they are mostly shaped irregular, unlike planets which are close to being round. The round shape is due to the increased mass (or weight) and only large masses tend to be round due to gravity.
Is all the planets completely round?
Yes and no. They are round, but not perfectly spherical. For example, the Earth has a slight bulge around the equator. Jupiter and Saturn have more obvious bulges. Saturn in particular is flattened at its poles compared with its equator. Also, of course, the surfaces of the planets are not perfectly smooth.
Why do scientist think the asteroids will never form into planets?
asteroids are NOT round they are bumpy and do not form a perfect sphere. One of the criterias of a planet is it has to be perfectly round
How round is the moon?
it is perfectly round.
whats starts with p and round?
PLANETS ARE ROUND AND START WITH P SO THE ANSWER IS PLANETS ( i think )
If Earth is round how can it be tilted?
the earth is not perfectly round, as with most other planets it is an oblate spheroid. Answer: The tilt refers to a tilt in the axis of rotation, compared to a line that is perpendicular to the Ecliptic (the plane of Earth's orbit around the Sun).
How do you move particles?
twist it round and round
When did the planets first Aline perfectly?
the year 1832
Is a circle perfectly round?
Yes
Is the sun perfectly round?
yes
Why are the dwarf planets round?
because of the gravity of the other planets around them
Which planets has more of a spherical shape?
There are two planets with an almost perfectly spherical shape. They are Mercury and Venus.
Are all-stars round?
Yes. All the stars are round and all the planets are round.
