Solar rotation refers to the rotation of the Sun on its axis. Unlike a solid object, the Sun is a gaseous body, and as a result, different parts of it rotate at different rates. This phenomenon is known as differential rotation. 1. **Equatorial Rotation**: The Sun's equator rotates more quickly than its poles. The equatorial regions take about 24 to 25 days to complete one full rotation.
