Question

Which of the following statements about the length of a planet's day is true? The closer the planet is to the Sun, the shorter is its day. The more massive the planet, the longer its day. The four gas giants barely rotate at all. None of the above.

Answer 1

Answer:

None of the above.

Explanation:

• The planet's day length all depends on their relationships to the sun as the planet that is located near the sun has longer days as compared to the planet that is located far off and the large gaseous planet have more and are less dense but all rotate on their axis.

Answer 2

Answer: None of the above

Explanation: The length of a planets day is determined by the amount of time it takes for a planet to completely spin around and make one full rotation. This is known as a sidereal day which is the time in which a planet rotates once around its axis, relative to the point when the sun appears to cross the celestial equator while tilting towards from the observer.

From the explanation above, it can be concluded that none of the options is related to the length of a planet's day.
