how fast is the rotation of the sun and in which direction does it turn????

Answer 1

I thought the sun didn't rotate but I checked it up and apparently it does, but it rotates at differently since it is comprised of gas. Check out this website

Answer 2

The sun rotates on its axis once every 27 days. Since it is gaseous, not all regions of the sun rotate at the same speed. We got the 27 day number from observing sunspots, which occur mostly in the middle latitudes. The polar regions may not track them exactly.

If you assign the direction "Up" to the side of the solar system on the same side as Earth's north pole, and view from above, all the planets rotate around the sun counter-clockwise. This is because the accretion disk out of which everything formed was rotating in this direction originally. The sun was part of this original disk as well, so it rotates the same way.

Answer 3

Looking down onto the sun's north pole (same "up" direction as the earth's north pole), the sun rotates counterclockwise. So, from the earth, sunspots move from left to right across the face of the sun (over several days).

It has had a consistent 27 day cycle of rotation, at its equator

.

Answer 4

Counter clockwise, 27 Earth days.

Answer 5

the sun doesn't rotate
