Ceres' period of rotation is approximately 9 hours, which is significantly shorter than Earth's rotation period of about 24 hours. This means that Ceres completes one full rotation on its axis much faster than Earth does.
Yes, Ceres does rotate on its axis, completing one rotation approximately every 9 hours. This rotation causes Ceres to have a slight bulge at its equator and influences its surface features.
This is called "rotation" or "spin".
The correct anatomical term for spin is rotation or circumduction.
Pluto takes about 6.4 Earth days to complete one full rotation on its axis, which is equivalent to a 360-degree spin.
Ceres has a rotation period of 0.3781 days, and an orbital period of 4.6 years.
Ceres sidereal rotation period is about 0.3781 days.
Ceres orbits the Sun once in 4.6 years and its rotation period is 9.1 hours.
