light that travels from the sun is solar wind. it takes the light 8 minutes to reach earth.
A little over 8 minutes.
The sunlight is travelling between about 146,400,000 and 151,400,000 kilometers at a speed of almost 300,000 kilometers per second.
A space station goes very fast. It orbits the earth every 90 minutes! (hour and a half)
You turn off your lights and any other non-essential appliances for one hour at Earth Hour.
But you do! The earth rotates roughly once every 24 hours. If you didn't do the same, then the ground would whiz by under your feet at something like 800 miles per hour (in the mid-USA). Similarly, the earth is sailing along in its orbit around the sun, at something like 67,000 miles per hour. If you didn't sail right along with the earth, you would be left behind very quickly.
The letter n
That means to every full hour. Always when the long arm is at the 12.
No. Half of the planet would be in sunlight (day) while the other half would be in darkness (night), just like the Earth, with the exception of its rotational speed, which is about once every 243 Earth days, instead of Earth's 24 hours.
1 time of the days 12 hour for the day light and another 12 hour is for night time that mine anwer.
Every second of every hour of every day.
It takes 8 minutes to get to earth, and closer to half an hour to get to Jupiter.
None. Every country on Earth has 24 hour days.
Every location on earth south of the Antarctic Circle experiences at least one 24-hour period of no sunset annually. At the South Pole, the period is six months. This phenomenon is caused by the tilt of the earth toward the sun during the austral summer season.
t That depends on how big your tolerance is and how big the hits are. If you had a big 'habit' then you could have lots of small hits every hour. Basically there is no definitive answer for this question.
360° / 24 hours = 15° / hour. Note that the 360° is an approximation.
The Earth turns 15 degrees in 1 hour.
The Earth rotates once on it's axis once every 24 hour. It takes the Earth over 365 days to orbit the Sun.
The next Earth Hour event will take place on March 28, 2009. Earth Hour takes place from 8:00 - 9:00 pm in their respective time zone in every city. Earth Day is celebrated each year on April 22nd.
There would still be 360o. But instead of the earth rotating 15o every hour it would only rotate 10o every hour.
