Question: How long does it take for Venus to lap Earth? 1. Write expressions: Imagine a line drawn from a planet to the Sun. As the planet orbits the Sun, the line moves through an angle (0) of 360 degrees. The angular velocity of a planet is equal to 360° divided by the period (T) of the planet: W360° Sun Planet Suppose it takes V days for Venus to orbit the Sun and E days for Earth to orbit the Sun. Substitute these variables for T in the equation above to write expressions for the angular velocities of Venus and Earth
