With a diameter of about 950km, Ceres is by far the largest and most massive body in the asteroid belt, and contains a third (32%) of the belt's total mass. Recent observations have revealed that it is spherical, unlike the irregular shapes of smaller bodies with lower gravity. The surface of Ceres is probably made of a mixture of water ice and various hydrated minerals like carbonates and clays. Ceres appears to be differentiated into a rocky core and ice mantle. It may harbour an ocean of liquid water underneath its surface, which makes it a potential target in the search for extraterrestrial life. Ceres' apparent magnitude ranges from 6.7 to 9.3, and hence at its brightest is still too dim to be seen with the naked eye. On September 27, 2007, NASA launched the Dawn space probe to explore Vesta (2011--2012) and Ceres (2015). - Jackl1019

How many earth days equal to 1 day in Ceres?
A day on Ceres is about 9.1 hours long.9 and a half hours. After one sunrise, the Sun sets about five hours later.The dwarf planet 1 Ceres rotates around its axis in about 9.1 hours.
How many days is a year on Ceres?
One year on Ceres, which is the time it takes for Ceres to complete one orbit around the Sun, is equivalent to 1,682 Earth days.
Is this true or false the length of a planet's year is determined by how fast it spins?
False, the speed it spins on it's axis determinds the length of day. The speed it rotates the sun determinds the length of it's year.
How long is a year on Ceres?
Ceres takes about 4.6 years to make one trip around the sun.
Where on Earth are day and night of equal length throughout the year?
Day and night are of equal length at the equator, which is an imaginary line that circles the Earth halfway between the North and South Poles. This phenomenon occurs during the equinoxes, which happen around March 20-21 and September 22-23 each year.
What is Ceres's length of day?
9.1 h

How many days is a year on Ceres?
One year on Ceres, which is the time it takes for Ceres to complete one orbit around the Sun, is equivalent to 1,682 Earth days.
What is the length of the year and day on Jupiter?
the length of a day on Jupiter is unknown and so is the amount of days in a year
What is the rotation for Ceres?
The rotational period of Ceres (the Cererian day) is 9 hours and 4 minutes.
How does the length of a day on Venus compare with the length of it a year?
its the length of your mom and shes pretty fat
What planet has the greatest similarity between the length of its day and the length of its year?
Venus. The "day" (rotation period or sidereal day) is longer than the year! Venus Sidereal day: 243 Earth days. Venus Year: 224.7 Earth days.
What is the time called that is based on the average length of a day throughout a year?
The average length of the day is usually just called "day".
How long is one Ceres year?
Ceres takes about 4.6 years to make one trip around the sun.
Is this true or false the length of a planet's year is determined by how fast it spins?
False, the speed it spins on it's axis determinds the length of day. The speed it rotates the sun determinds the length of it's year.
1st equalest day of the year?
The equinoxes are the two dates each year when the day and the night are of equal length.
Is the length of a day on Ceres the same as how long it takes for it to rotate on its axis?
Yes it is.That's the same for any planet or dwarf planet.A " day" is defined as the period of rotation.There are other definitions, but they are all very similar in most cases.
