(B). Binary planet Pluto/Charon consists of Pluto and Charon. It is considered to be a binary planet because Charon has the largest size of any satellite (IN RELATION TO ITS PARENT PLANET) in The Solar System. Pluto rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days, and Charon rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days. In that case, the total rotation period of this binary system is 6.387230 + 6.387230 = 12.77446 Earth days.

Earth rotation period = 0.997269663 Earth days, and Mars rotation period = 1.025957 Earth days.

(12.77446 ÷ 0.997269663) + (12.77446 ÷ 1.025957) = 25.2607 rotations.

0.2607 x 360 = 93.9 degrees.

That is 25 complete rotations + 93.9 degrees.

(C). Binary planet Pluto/Charon consists of Pluto and Charon. It is considered to be a binary planet because Charon has the largest size of any satellite (IN RELATION TO ITS PARENT PLANET) in The Solar System. Pluto rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days, and Charon rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days. In that case, the total rotation period of this binary system is 6.387230 + 6.387230 = 12.77446 Earth days.

Mars rotation period = 1.025957 Earth days. The Two Mars Satellites are Phobos (rotation period = 0.31891023 Earth days) and Deimos (rotation period = 1.2624407 Earth days).

(12.77446 ÷ 1.025957) + (12.77446 ÷ 0.31891023) + (12.77446 ÷ 1.2624407) = 62.6267 rotations.

0.6267 x 360 = 225.6 degrees.

That is 62 complete rotations + 225.6 degrees.

(D). Binary planet Pluto/Charon consists of Pluto and Charon. It is considered to be a binary planet because Charon has the largest size of any satellite (IN RELATION TO ITS PARENT PLANET) in The Solar System. Pluto rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days, and Charon rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days. In that case, the total rotation period of this binary system is 6.387230 + 6.387230 = 12.77446 Earth days.

The Sun’s rotation period = 24.66225 Earth days.

The Sun’s INNERMOST “Satellite” (planet) is Mercury whose rotation period = 58.6462 Earth days.

(12.77446 ÷ 24.66225) + (12.77446 ÷ 58.6462) = 0.7358 rotations.

0.7358 x 360 = 264.9 degrees.

(E). Binary planet Pluto/Charon consists of Pluto and Charon. It is considered to be a binary planet because Charon has the largest size of any satellite (IN RELATION TO ITS PARENT PLANET) in The Solar System. Pluto rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days, and Charon rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days. In that case, the total rotation period of this binary system is 6.387230 + 6.387230 = 12.77446 Earth days.

Here are the names and orbital periods (expressed in Earth days) of The Four Inner Solar System Planets:- Mercury 87.9692 and Venus 224.70067 and Earth 365.25636 and Mars 686.9782

(12.77446 ÷ 87.9692) + (12.77446 ÷ 224.70067) + (12.77446 ÷ 365.25636) + (12.77446 ÷ 686.9782) = 0.2556 revolutions.

(F). Binary planet Pluto/Charon consists of Pluto and Charon. It is considered to be a binary planet because Charon has the largest size of any satellite (IN RELATION TO ITS PARENT PLANET) in The Solar System. Pluto rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days, and Charon rotation period = 6.387230 Earth days. In that case, the total rotation period of this binary system is 6.387230 + 6.387230 = 12.77446 Earth days.

Here are the names and rotation periods (expressed in Earth days) of The Three INNERMOST Satellites of The Inner Solar System:- The Sun’s INNERMOST “Satellite” (planet) is Mercury (rotation period = 58.6462 Earth days).

Mercury and Venus have no satellites.

Earth’s INNERMOST (and only) Satellite is the Moon (rotation period = 27.321661 Earth days).

Mars’ INNERMOST Satellite is Phobos (rotation period = 0.31891023 Earth days).

(12.77446 ÷ 58.6462) + (12.77446 ÷ 27.321661) + (12.77446 ÷ 0.31891023) = 40.74198 rotations.

0.74198 x 360 = 267.1 degrees.

That is 40 complete rotations + 267.1 degrees.
