What makes the moon spin?
Reflection of the sun.
Does the sun and moon spin around the earth?
No, the Earth and the Moon revolve together around the Sun. (The Moon orbits the Earth and both orbit the Sun together.)
Is the spin of the earth due to the moon gravitational pull?
No, it's actually due to the sun's.
Why do the moon and earth spin?
because of the orbit because of the orbit the earth spins around the sun. while the moon does the same that is why when the sun goes around the sun 1 time its a new year.
How long does the moon take to spin once around the sun?
like 1 year probs
What way is a moon similar to a planet?
It spins around the earth on an axis like how the planets spin around the sun.
What is the cause of year month and day?
Day - When the earth does a spin Month - When the moon orbits us Year - When we orbit the sun
If the earth spins faster would the moon go faster around the earth?
No. The speed of the moon's orbit does not depend on Earth's spin; it depends on Earth's mass. However, a faster spin on Earth's part would make the moon appear to move across the sky faster, as it would for the sun and stars.
Does the sun spin round?
no it does not spin round
What are the directions of the orbits of the moon and earth?
Viewed from a vantage point above the north poles of both the Sun and the Earth, the Earth orbits in a counterclockwise direction about the Sun. Similarly the Moon orbits the Earth in a counterclockwise direction. From the same vantage point, the Earth, Moon and Sun also rotate on their axes of spin in a counterclockwise direction.
Does the earth spin around the moon or the sun?
The moon spins around the earth once a month. The earth spins around the sun once a year and the earth spins on it axis once a day giving rise to night and day. So in answer to your question the earth spins around the sun and the moon spins around the earth.
What does the moon spin on?
Its axis.
