In rocky planets,does fast rotation cause flatting or low flatting imply slow rotation?
The flattening of a planet is a function of both its spin rate and its structure. But for a series of planets of homologous structure the flattening depends on the spin rate. the faster it spins the greater the flattening (for spin rates typical of planets any way). So if a planet is spinning slowly it will display little polar flattening, similarly if it does not show flattening it should be spinning slowly.
