Earth goes under millions of motions - itself, the pull of the moon, orbiting the sun, which orbits a galaxy where the stars change position all the time, and the galaxy is still stretching. Now why millions? Because everything has its own gravity, no matter how small, and can affect in even the slightest bit to our orbit. So, I should say billions.
Now, for those who think that answer is wrong, take this one then:
Relative to the sun, 2.

What are the three motions of earth?
1. diurnal motion 1. annual motion 1. precession
The earth undergoes three main motions of space what are these?
The three major motions that the Earth undergos in space are Revolution(Orbit), Rotation, and Precession
How are the plate motions connected with motions within the rest of earth mantle?
convection currents in the mantle provide the basic driving forces for plate motions.
What process within earth's asthenosphere is responsible for plate motions?
Rocks
What are the two main motions of the earth?
rotating and revolution
How many the earth has motions?
It moves two ways if that what you are asking.
Which two motions does earth in space?
The two motions that Earth makes are rotations and revolutions.
What are lissajous pattern when they are produced?
Most often than not we come across bodies undergoing more than one kind of motion simultaneously. Take a wheel of a moving car, for example. It is rotating about the axle and is also undergoing translatory motion. If we were to trace the path of a point on this wheel, it could give us information on the different motions superimposed on that point and the resultant of those motions. The pattern traced out by a point undergoing two or more kinds of motions is termed its Lissajous Pattern.
What are the 2 motions of earth?
The two motions of Earth are ;- Daily (24 hours) axial rotation. Annual (1 year) orbital (revolution) about the Sun. NB There are several other known movements of the Earth. they are ;- The angle of the Earth's axis varies between 28 degrees to 21 degrees. Currently at 23 degrees. The Earth's orbit about the Sun is an ellipsoid, that is an ellips that doesn't quite close up with each orbit, but slightly overlaps. This elliptical movement varies between nearly circular to a narrow ellipse. The Earth speeds up an slows down through space, because the Sun lies at one of the foci of the ellipse , NOT the centre. As a consequence, when nearer the Sun we moive faster, and when further away we move slower. Because of the Moon , the Earth 'wobbles' in and out of its orbital track. Summing , we can say that the Earth 'dances' through space, with the Sun and Moon as partners.
What are the three motions of earth?
1. diurnal motion 1. annual motion 1. precession
What are Earths 2 motions?
There are two principle motions of the Earth. The earth rotates around on its axis. The earth is also known to revolve around the sun.
The earth undergoes three main motions of space what are these?
The three major motions that the Earth undergos in space are Revolution(Orbit), Rotation, and Precession
How are the plate motions connected with motions within the rest of earth mantle?
convection currents in the mantle provide the basic driving forces for plate motions.
How are plate motions connected with motions within the rest of earth's mantle?
convection currents in the mantle provide the basic driving forces for plate motions.
What are earths 2 principal motions?
Earth revolves around the sun and rotates on its axis.
What are the of the earth's rotation and revolution around the sun?
Primarily, these motions of the planet Earth bring about the phenomena of night and day, and the changing seasons. These, in turn, have many consequences.
How do plate motions effect Earth's crust?
it kills you to death
