I WONDER - How Long Is A Day On Venus?

The video explains how days and years are measured based on planetary rotation and orbits. It highlights that a day is determined by how long it takes a planet to rotate, while a year is defined by the time taken to orbit the sun, which also causes seasons. The video uses Venus as an example, noting that it takes 243 Earth days for Venus to complete one rotation, but only 224 Earth days to orbit the sun, making a Venus year shorter than a Venus day.

How do we define a day on a planet?

• By the time it takes for the planet to complete a year

• By the time it takes for the sun to rise and set

• By the time it takes for the planet to rotate once

• By the time it takes for the planet to orbit the sun

What determines the length of a year on a planet?

• The time it takes for the planet to rotate once

• The time it takes for the sun to rise and set
