25 days
Mercury has a oval rotation because of the suns gravity
25 days for a rotation at the equator, 34 days for a rotation near the poles.
Approximately 24.47 days
Strangely, the Suns has a differential rotation. At the equator, it takes 25 days for one rotation; near the poles, 34 days.
The starting point of the sun's rotation is typically considered to be the equator of the sun. The sun rotates on its axis, which passes through its equator, completing a full rotation approximately once every 27 days.
1.392 X 106 Km is the equatorial diameter. There is a slight 'flattening' of the polar diameter dues to the suns rotation.
it traps plasma in flux transfer events that occur every eight minutes. The trapping of plasma is key in enhancing Earths magnetosphere and maintaining rotation for planets and suns. A reduction in magnetosphere is a reduction in rotation period. If Earth did not experience FTE's there would be no rotation as in Venus and Mercury
Not particularly. The Earth's rotation around the Solar System is controlled by the Sun but the Moon is mostly controlled by the Earth, so the Sun really has more of an influence on the Earth than the Moon.
The circulation of gases in the Sun, along with its rotation, creates magnetic fields. These magnetic fields are responsible for various phenomena such as sunspots, solar flares, and the solar wind.
An axis is an imaginary line perpendicular to the plane of rotation and centered on the center of mass of the (solar) system.
The Sun's rotation is not consistent - its equator rotates faster than its poles. This causes the Sun's magnetic field to become twisted and creates solar activity like sunspots and solar flares.
The period to rotate once on its axis is known as a day,The period to revolve around the Sun is known as a year.
