Question
which two phrases describe the motion of all the outer planets? no rotation, slow revolution fast rotation, slow revolution north - to - south rotation, slow revolution no rotation, opposite revolution
All outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) rotate quickly on their axes (Jupiter takes ~10 hours to rotate once, the others only slightly longer). They have slow revolution because they orbit the Sun at a great distance, so their orbital periods are very long (Jupiter takes ~12 Earth years, Neptune takes ~165 Earth years). All planets rotate, so options with "no rotation" are incorrect. Uranus has a sideways rotation, not north-to-south, so that option is not true for all outer planets.
