No, because gravity has to do with mass, not rotation.
If it weren't for gravity, the rotation would cause people to fly off into space. Every object is supposed to go in a straight path forever, unless countered by another object. For example:
If you have a a circle, with a small opening (_) (but with the bottom slightly more rounded), and you put a marble inside and gave it a slight push, it would go around the ring, till it reaches the opening, where it will leave in a straight path. The thing stopping it is the ring, exerting an inward force on it. The Earths rotation is pushing us in our natural straight path, and gravity is like the ring, stopping us from leaving by exerting an inward force on us towards the center of the Earth (the surface is keeping us from going to the core; the surface of Earth acts as the ring, also pushing an inward force on us , which to us will push us out. However, gravity keeps us from floating, for being so strong. The gravity is so strong because of the close distance between us and the Earth, plus the Earths mass is very large).
Anyway, rotation causes us to leave Earth in our natural straight path, and Earths gravity keeps us here; henceforth, Gravity and Rotation have nothing to do with each other.
I apologize if there is any mistakes (probably not, but perhaps). I am not a teacher nor an adult, so it is plausible that I have some information wrong, nothing major, but perhaps a few words here and there are incorrect. It should be overall correct.

Does the sun's rotation cause gravity?
no
Is the rotation of the earth due to gravity?
Yes, it is due to the gravitational pull of the Sun.
What would earth be like with no rotation?
i think earth with no rotation would be like the world with no air cause earth i surrounded by air so that is how i would see the earth wit no rotation
Does the Moon's orbit cause seasons?
No, the rotation of the Earth around the Sun combined with the tilt of the Earth cause seasons.
Over time the moon's gravity will drastically alter Earth's Similarly precession will eventually alter Earth's?
Over time the moon's gravity will drastically alter Earth's pole star similarly precession will eventually alter Earth's rate of rotation.
Is the earths rotatin by gravity?
No, gravity doesn't cause the Earth's rotation.
Is the gravity of earth is because of it rotation?
No - the gravity of Earth is due to its mass.No - the gravity of Earth is due to its mass.No - the gravity of Earth is due to its mass.No - the gravity of Earth is due to its mass.
How does gravity help the earth spin?
Gravity has little if anything to do with the Earth's rotation.
Does the sun's rotation cause gravity?
no
Is the gravity involve in the rotation of earth at its own axis?
No. Earth's gravity is the result of its mass.
What is a true state meant about gravity?
earth rotation on its axis causes gravity to occur on earth
What whould happen if the time of rotation for Earth was different?
The days would be longer, and the gravity would be higher if the rotation time of earth was longer. The days would be shorter, and there would be less gravity on Earth if the rotation time decreased.
What keeps the earth moving?
The Gravity and Rotation in our solar system.
What are Tides on Earth are causes by?
Tides on earth are mainly caused by the moon's gravity and earth's rotation.
What would happen if the earth rotation slowed down?
If the Earth's rotation slowed down, our we would have less gravity, and when we have less gravity we have things floating around for long nights and long days (also due to the planet slowing down). This can lead to many dis functions and could cause the appearance of anti-matter.
What are the tides on earth mainly caused by?
Tides on earth are mainly caused by the moon's gravity and earth's rotation.
Day and night are cause by?
the rotation of Earth on its axis.
