Uranus rotates on its axis about once every 17 hours and 14 minutes. This means Uranus completes a full rotation approximately every 17 hours.

How many times does Uranus rotation per orbit?
Uranus rotation time is about 17.2 hours. Uranus orbits the Sun in about 30,589 Earth days. That's about 734,136 hours. 734,136/17.2 = 42,682 (approximated). So the answer is about 42,682 times. (I've used numbers from a NASA data page. Other sources give slightly different numbers. On average the answer is about 42,700 rotations.)
What makes Uranus different among the gas giants?
Uranus rotates on its side
What is characteristic of Uranus?
Uranus has the coldest atmosphere at -224C on average. Something that is unique about Uranus is that it has 22 moons. Also, it rotates on its side instead of upright.There are two odd things about the rotation of Uranus. Firstly it is tilted at 98o or 8o past horizontal (it rotates on its side). It also rotates backwards compared to the other planets except for Venus that also rotates backwards.
Which day is shorter in uranus or in Jupiter?
A day on Uranus is shorter than a day on Jupiter. Uranus rotates on its axis once in about 17 hours, while Jupiter rotates once in about 10 hours.
What is the planet that rotates parallel to its orbital plane?
Uranus.
Which planet rotates on its side?
Uranus is the planet that rotates on its side, with an axial tilt of about 98 degrees. This unusual tilt causes extreme seasonal variations on Uranus, where one pole can be in constant sunlight while the other experiences continuous darkness for long periods.
What planet rotates on it's side?
Uranus rotates on its side, tilted so far over that its axis of rotation is almost parallel to its orbit around the sun. This unique tilt causes extreme seasonal changes on Uranus, with its poles experiencing long periods of sunlight or darkness.
What is unusual about how the way that uranus rotates?
It rotates on its side
How many hours for Uranus to rotate on its axis?
Uranus takes about 17 hours and 14 minutes to rotate once on its axis.
Do Uranus rotates in clockwise?
yes it does
What planet has a vertical tilt and rotates on its side?
Uranus rotates nearly on its 'side'.
What makes Uranus different among the gas giants?

Which planet rotates sideways?
Uranus rotates sideways, with an axial tilt of about 98 degrees. This unique tilt causes the planet to essentially roll on its side as it orbits the Sun, resulting in extreme seasonal variations and unusual magnetic field behavior.
Which planet rotates on its axis backward?
Its Uranus...
What causes the Uranus rotates unusual?
sun
Which of the following planets rotates on its side?
Uranus is the planet that rotates on its side. Its axis is tilted at an angle of about 98 degrees relative to its orbit around the Sun, causing it to essentially roll on its side as it orbits.
