Want this question answered?
we can prove that the earth rotates on its axis because we experience day time and night time/their is a change from day time to night time / night time to day time....
the earth rotates on its axis and when it has rotated so that it face away from the sun, we experience night time
In south pole it has experienced whole night time.
No. Day and night is determined by what part of Earth is facing the sun. Half of the Earth faces toward the sun and half of earth faces away from the sun. As the Earth spins on it's axis, we get daylight in one side of the earth, and night time in the other side of the earth. It is never possible to have night time, or day time, on all the earth at the exact same time.

Rotation of the earth causes day and night. The earth rotates about its axis. when the earth rotates, places facing the sun experiences daylight while those on the other side of the earth that does not experience sunlight experiences darkness or night (NOTE: the earth is a sphere and therefore all places on the earth cannot receive sunlight at the same time). As I said before, the earth rotates and as such, after sometime, places that once experienced daylight experience darkness or night as it moves away from the sun when the sun rotates. likewise places that once experienced night experience day because of the same reason. For better comprehension, see diagram below SITUATION-A SITUATION-B
The sun only lights one half of the Earth at a time.
No, the seasons are always opposite on the other side of the equator.
Half the Earth is light, the other half is dark. Anywhere on the dark half experiences night.
The earth rotates on an axis, which means it's in a different spot everyday, this is why we have day light savings time.
Because the sun can only shine on one side of the Earth at a time, and the Earth rotates. Meaning two places that aren't in the same position east-west won't have day and night at the same time.
No, North America had night and day at the same time, meanwhile, other parts of the world (such as Australia), have it reversed and have their seasons reversed too.
