What else can I help you with?
Does the earth rotate like the other planets?
Yes the Earth does rotate like the other planets (except for the distance of the rotation(assuming your talking about the rotation around the Sun); the wobble of the Earths axis compared to other planets; and the time it takes to rotate)
Does Jupiter rotate on an axis?
All planets do. The difference is that for gas giant planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune), the speed of the "surface spin" is often quite different from the rotation of the atmosphere, which will vary by latitude.
Does Neptune rotate horizontally?
No, Neptune axis of rotation, like that of Earth is basically at right angles to the plane of the ecliptic (the plane in which the planets rotate round the sun). It is Uranus that has a unique configuration among the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane the ecliptic, (i.e. its north and south poles lie where most other planets have their equators).
How does meteors move?
They move around the Sun in ellipses - just like the planets.
Does Neptune rotate vertically or horizontally?
Neptune rotates horizontally on its axis, like most other planets in our solar system. Its axis is tilted at about 28.32 degrees relative to the plane of its orbit around the Sun, causing it to have seasons similar to Earth.
Does the earth rotate like the other planets?
Yes the Earth does rotate like the other planets (except for the distance of the rotation(assuming your talking about the rotation around the Sun); the wobble of the Earths axis compared to other planets; and the time it takes to rotate)
Which planet does not rotate on a top to bottom axis?
Venus is the planet that does not rotate on a top to bottom axis like the other planets in our solar system. It rotates in the opposite direction, from east to west, which is known as retrograde rotation.
Does Jupiter rotate on an axis?
All planets do. The difference is that for gas giant planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune), the speed of the "surface spin" is often quite different from the rotation of the atmosphere, which will vary by latitude.
Does Neptune rotate horizontally?
No, Neptune axis of rotation, like that of Earth is basically at right angles to the plane of the ecliptic (the plane in which the planets rotate round the sun). It is Uranus that has a unique configuration among the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane the ecliptic, (i.e. its north and south poles lie where most other planets have their equators).
How does a planets revolution relate to orbital period?
The planets rotation does not really relate to the orbital period. Some planets like Mercury and Venus and Mars orbit the sun in a short time, but take a long time to rotate on their axis, Earth is the exception, where a collision with the moon many years ago may have caused its days to be a lot shorter than the other rocky planets. Saturn and Jupiter rotate fairly quickly on their axis.
Do all planets revolve around its axis?
No, not all planets revolve around their axes. Some planets like Venus have a very slow rotation, while others like Jupiter rotate more quickly. The rate at which a planet spins on its axis can vary depending on its size, composition, and distance from the sun.
The word--------------- means to spin around like a top?
rotate - to revolve round a centre or axis
How does meteors move?
They move around the Sun in ellipses - just like the planets.
Does Neptune rotate vertically or horizontally?
Neptune rotates horizontally on its axis, like most other planets in our solar system. Its axis is tilted at about 28.32 degrees relative to the plane of its orbit around the Sun, causing it to have seasons similar to Earth.
Do gas giants rotate faster on there axis?
Yes, gas giants rotate faster on their axis compared to terrestrial planets like Earth. For example, Jupiter completes a rotation in about 10 hours, while Earth takes about 24 hours. This fast rotation is due to their massive size and faster spinning during their formation.
Do all planets self rotate like earth?
yes
Does earth revolves around the sun on its own orbit?
Yes all eight planets plus an additional billions of meteoroids and dust revolve around the sun; however, all planets like Earth have a set orbit and revolve around the sun. All planets also rotate on an axis.
