9.9 Earth hours
Jupiter's rotation period is about 9.9 hours, meaning it takes approximately 9.9 hours for the planet to complete one full rotation on its axis.
A day on Jupiter is less than 10 Earth hours
Jupiter's orbital period is about 11.86 Earth years, which translates to approximately 4,332 Earth days. In comparison, Earth's orbital period is 365.25 days. Therefore, Jupiter's orbital period is about 3,966 days longer than that of Earth.
Mercury's period of rotation, or the time it takes to complete one full rotation on its axis, is 58.6 Earth days. Its period of revolution, or the time it takes to orbit the Sun, is about 88 Earth days. This means that one day on Mercury (rotation) is longer than one year on Mercury (revolution).
There are about 2.4 Jupiter days in one Earth day.
A Jupiter day is 10 Earth hours, and a year is 12 Earth years, or about 4383 Earth days.
The period of rotation of Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons, is approximately equal to its orbital period, which is about 16.7 Earth days. This means that Callisto takes about 16.7 days to rotate once on its axis.
The period of rotation for Io is approximately 1.77 Earth days. Io is tidally locked with Jupiter, meaning it takes the same amount of time to rotate on its axis as it does to orbit Jupiter.
Jupiter's rotation period is about 9.9 hours, meaning it takes approximately 9.9 hours for the planet to complete one full rotation on its axis.
Rotation means the planet spinning about it axis. (Orbit the the path of the planet round the Sun). The planet Mercury has a rotational period of 58.646 Earth days. The planet Venus has a (retrograde) rotational period of 243.0185 Earth days. The planet Mars has a rotational period of 1.025957 Earth days. The planet Jupiter has a rotational period of 9.925 hours. Obviously Earth has a rotational period of 1 Earth day.
A day on Jupiter is less than 10 Earth hours
A day (rotation period) is about 9.925 hours.A year (revolution period around the Sun) is 4,331.572 Earth days or 11.85920 Earth years.
The smallest planet, Mercury, has a period of rotation of about 59 Earth days. Its slow rotation speed means that a day on Mercury (from one sunrise to the next) is much longer compared to a day on Earth.
Jupiter's orbital period is about 11.86 Earth years, which translates to approximately 4,332 Earth days. In comparison, Earth's orbital period is 365.25 days. Therefore, Jupiter's orbital period is about 3,966 days longer than that of Earth.
Days on Jupiter are shorter than those on Earth because Jupiter has a much faster rotation, completing a full rotation on its axis in just under 10 hours. Earth, in comparison, takes about 24 hours to complete one full rotation. This difference in rotation speeds is why Jupiter's days are shorter.
Jupiter's length of orbit, or its orbital period, is about 4,332.82 Earth days, which is equivalent to roughly 11.9 Earth years.
The rotation period of Venus is 243.0187 Earth days
