First off, the Earth orbits the sun. Second off, no. The time it takes the Earth to orbit the sun is a year. A day is the time it takes the Earth to rotate on its axis.

About how long does it take solar winds to reach earth?
I calculate about four days. The "slow" solar wind which is the bulk of it, travels at about 400 km/s. The sun is about 149,000,000 km from earth, which works out to about 104 hours. A coronal mass ejection, a massive burst of solar wind with consequences for radio and satellites, may reach earth 1-5 days after eruption.
How far does the moon move eastward each day?
The moon orbits the Earth 3 1/2 times a day.
How did solar eclipse take place?
the eclipse starts at 10:00 p.m. eastern ___________________ Earth's experience of the solar eclipse is a happy coincidence of history. It just happens that we have a moon of the right size and favorable orbit. It will not always be so. In future ages, the moon will no longer be able to give us 'total' eclipses, because it is very slowly moving farther away from earth. At some point it will be too far to completely cover the face of the sun.
How long would it take a typical jet airplane traveling at 400 miles per hour to travel to the Sun from Earth?
26 years.
Why does Mars have seasons twice as long as Earth's seasons?
Because Mars' average distance from the sun is about 1.5 times the earth's average distance from the sun. We've known for about 400 years now that the period of an orbit is completely determined by the size and shape of the orbit. The size or mass of the orbiting body have no effect on the period. So ... farther from the sun, longer time to complete each orbit. It's as simple as that. Here's the math: For every planet in our solar system, the quantity (time for one orbit)2 / (1/2 of the largest dimension across the orbit)3 is the same number.
How long does it take to for the earth to completely orbit the sun?
The calendar year is 365.2425 days, which comes from there being 97 leap years in a cycle of 400 years.
Why are there 365 in year?
It takes the Earth about 365.2422 days to orbit the sun exactly once. Because of this, we have three years which are 365 days long and every fourth year is 366 days long (leap year). Because the Earth takes 365.2422 days to orbit the sun instead of exactly 365.25 days, we only have a leap year on a century year which is divisible by 4 and by 400 (such as 2000). Century years which are divisible by 4 but not by 400 are not leap years (1900 wasn't and 2100 will not be).

How high does the space shuttle orbit above earth?
aprox 115 to 400 miles
How far above the earth does the spacestation orbit?
The ISS orbits at an altitude of 400 km (250 miles) above Earth.
What is earths yearly orbit around the sun 365 days?
Revolve
How long does it take sprouts to grow?
400 days 400 nights
How far is the Hubble telescope from the sun?
About 93,000,000 miles. It is in "low earth orbit" which means it is around 400 miles +/- a few, above the earth.
How long does it take for brussel sprouts to grow?
Depending on the variety it can take anywhere from 90-110 days give or take.
Is your calendars based on earth's orbit of sun or the Moon's orbit of earth?
Most calendars are based on the Earth's movement round the Sun. The Gregorian calendar is used in most countries and it has 365 days in a year, with an extra day (February 29) in 97 years out of every 400, which are called leap years. This gives an average year of 365.2425 days.
How many pages does The Jagged Orbit have?
The Jagged Orbit has 400 pages.
What causes us to have years?
It takes about 365.2422 days for Earth to orbit the sun, but the number of days in a calendar year is always a whole number. In the Gregorian calendar, each regular year has 365 days and each leap year has 366 days. There are 97 leap years in every 400-year period. That makes the average length of a Gregorian calendar year 365.2425 days.
