What is the turning of a planet of a planet on its axis?
This is called "rotation" or "spin".
Jupiter's furious rate of spin causes what to happen?
Jupiter's rapid rotation rate causes its equator to bulge out and its poles to be flattened. It looks a bit like a squashed ball; the planet is seven percent larger at the equator than at the poles.
What planet lies in its orbit plane?
All planets lie in the plane of their orbit, but most spin on an that is nearly (many have tilted axes of spin) perpendicular to that plane. The one exception is the planet Uranus which has its axis of spin lying very close to its orbital plane.
What is detemined by how fast a planet spins on its axis?
The rotational period, or how fast a planet spins on its axis, determines the length of a day on that planet. A faster spin results in shorter days, while a slower spin leads to longer days.
Why planets cannot go out of their orbits?
If the planet moved out of it's orbit the planet can be destroyed or spin out of control
Is Saturn the most flattened planet in your Solar System?
Yes.
Which planet has flattened poles?
Several planets are flattened at the poles. That just means the distance between the poles is less than diameter of the planet at the equator. Saturn is the most extreme example in our solar system, followed by Jupiter. Even the Earth is slightly flattened at the poles. Astronomers call this "oblateness".
Which terrestrial planet has retrograde spin?
Venus is the terrestrial planet with retrograde spin, meaning it rotates on its axis in the opposite direction to most other planets in our solar system.
What planet has flattened poles because it rotates so quickly?
Jupiter is the planet with flattened poles due to its rapid rotation. This fast rotation causes the planet to bulge at its equator and flatten at the poles.
Which planet spin on its side?
The planet Uranus spins on its side.
What is earth spin?
The rotation of the planet on its axis of spin. The spin is responsible for the day and the night.
Do planet spin at the same speed?
no
Do you agree that retailing has flattened the world?
No, an activity can not intrinsically change the shape of the planet.
What is the turning of a planet of a planet on its axis?
This is called "rotation" or "spin".
A spinning planet rotates in what direction?
Most of the planets in our solar system spin anticlockwise (counterclockwise) when viewed from above the north pole, but Uranus and Venus are exceptions - they spin clockwise on their axis.
Jupiter's furious rate of spin causes what to happen?
Jupiter's rapid rotation rate causes its equator to bulge out and its poles to be flattened. It looks a bit like a squashed ball; the planet is seven percent larger at the equator than at the poles.
What does earth spin on?
what does earth spin on besides a inmaginary line? ============== Planet Earth rotates on its axis.
