The rotational period of Venus is not the same as its solar day. It takes about 243 Earth days for Venus to make one slow spin, and it is in the opposite (retrograde) direction from its orbit. It can be said to spin clockwise, or east to west.
At the same time, it takes only 224.7 Earth days for Venus to orbit the Sun (its year). So the "day" on Venus is actually longer than the year!
(1 Venus year = 0.925 Venus sidereal day)
However
The result of these two motions produces a "solar day" (sunrise to sunrise) of about 116.75 Earth days on the planet, although obviously the sunrise cannot be seen from the surface.
(1 Venus year = 1.92 solar days)
Venus takes about 225 Earth days to orbit the Sun, so its year is equivalent to about 225 Venusian days. However, Venus rotates very slowly on its axis, with one day on Venus (one rotation) taking around 243 Earth days. This means that a day on Venus is longer than its year.
A year on Venus is equal to 224.7 Earth days (0.615 Earth years), which is about 0.925 Venusian days. Venus is the only planet in our Solar System whose rotational period (day) is longer than its orbital period (year).

How many years on earth is 1 year on venus?
A year on Venus is 224 Earth days and a day is 243 Earth days. This answer isn't bad, but remember the Solar day is "only" about 117 Earth days on Venus. I like the Solar day. It takes Venus about 243 Earth days to rotate once and that's what is called a Sidereal day.
How many days does Venus take to make 1 orbit?
Venus takes about 225 Earth days to complete one orbit around the Sun.
How many earth days is a year on Venus?
1 day on Venus is as long as one year on Earth. No seriously, that is true, it takes about one year for venus to make a complete rotation (i dont mean revolution, but rotation like spinning a basket ball.) Actually Venus rotates in about 243 Earth days and that's only about 8 months, not a year. One day on Venus is about 243 Earth days long. There are 24 hours in a day on Earth, 243 x 24=5832 hours. That's the rotation period, known as the "sidereal day". But it's more complicated than that because you're ignoring the "solar day". The solar day depends on a planet's motion round the Sun as well as its spin. For Venus the solar day is about 116.75 Earth days. That's about 116.75 x 24 = 2802 hours.
1 year on Venus?
One year on Venus is equivalent to about 225 Earth days. This is because Venus takes about 225 Earth days to orbit around the sun once. Additionally, Venus has a retrograde rotation, meaning it rotates on its axis in the opposite direction compared to most other planets.
Length of day and night for Venus?
the length of a day on Venus is 243 Earth days and a year on Venus is 225 Earth days!
How many Earth days is equal to one year on Venus?
1 Venusian year = 224.7 Earth days.
1 year on earth equal how many days on Venus?
1 year on earth is 224.7 days on venus. Dude I am a regular at www.examville.com and must say I can find almost every answer on the site. Great stuff. I'm sorry, but this answer needs improving. 224.7 days is not right. 1) Venus orbits the Sun in about 224.7 Earth days. That's a Venus year. However, you don't need that number for this question. 2) 1 year on Earth is about 365 days. 3) A sidereal day on Venus is about 243 Earth days. 4) A solar day on Venus is about 117 Earth days. Sorry I haven't time to do the arithmetic. "You do the math." All right I've got more time today. So: 1 year on Earth is about 1.50 Venus Sidereal days and its about 3.12 Solar days on Venus.
How many days long is Venus' years?
Solar day (24 hours for the Earth): about 116.75 Earth days. Sidereal day (rotation period, about 23 hours and 56 minutes for the Earth): about 243 Earth days. Year: about 224.7 Earth days.
