Question : 5
Which two planets rotate in a clockwise direction around the sun?
a) Venus and Mars
b) Venus and Uranus
c) Saturn and Neptune
d) Jupiter and Uranus
Answer »Answer: (b)
Venus and possibly Uranus are the exceptions to the counterclockwise rotations of the planets. Venus travels around the sun once every 225 Earth days but it rotates clockwise once every 243 days. This peculiar combination gives it a day with respect to the sun of 117 Earth days.
Uranus is tilted on its side about 90° so its direction of rotation is ambiguous. Its angle of inclination is usually given as 98° which would mean that its direction of rotation is not retrograde. If its direction of rotation is presumed retrograde then its angle of inclination would be 82°.

a) Venus and Saturn
b) Mars and Venus
c) Mercury and Venus

Answer »Answer: (b)
Earth is the third planet from the Sun in the following order from the Sun: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
The four smaller inner planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, also called the terrestrial planets, are primarily composed of rock and metal.
