How Fast Does the Sun Rotate?
š” The Answer
- The Sun rotates differently at different latitudes (differential rotation).
- At the equator, it rotates once every about 25 Earth days.
- Near the poles, rotation slows to once every 35 days or more.
- This differential rotation affects the Sun's magnetic field and sunspots.
