{- it is 365 because there are 365 days in a Year so the answer is 365!}
'365.2564 rotations -once everyday!'
Nope, 366.25. The Earth takes 23 hours and 56 minutes to make a complete rotation.
Because we are revolving around the sun, it takes a little extra rotation to get the sun back.

∙ 9y agoThe length of time it takes for the earth's rotation about its axis is 23 hours, 56 minutes, and about 4 seconds. This is called a sidereal day. This is different than a solar day, which is the time interval measured between successive noon's and is 24 hours.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoApproximately 366.24 rotations per year. The additional rotation above 365.24 (the number of days/year) makes up for the phenomenon that without any rotation, there would be 1 day/year and the sun would rise in the west and set in the east.
See Sidereal time for more detail.
365.25
Every rotation of the earth is a day for us. The .25 is made up in leap years

∙ 14y ago360 degrees in 24 hours = 15 degrees per hour = (15 / 3,600) = ( 1/240 ) degree per second
= 0.25 minute of angle per second = 15 seconds of angle per second.
At the equator, the linear speed is something like 1,520 feet (0.29 mile) per second.
At latitudes separated from the equator, the linear speed decreases as the cosine
of the latitude.
Note: All of these numbers are only approximate, since the earth's period of rotation is actually
about 4 minutes less than 24 hours. But they're pretty close.

It may sound like the earth is moving very slow, but its extremely fast.
That is why we see the sun and stars rise and set from east to west.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoMove relative to what?
If we assume the Sun is fixed and only take into account the Earth's orbital motion, then it's a bit under 30 kilometers (I get 29.85 and change in my quick back-of-the-envelope calculation).
However, the Sun (and the rest of the Solar System as a whole) is rotating around the galactic barycenter at (very, very roughly) 20 km/second, and the Milky Way as a whole is moving at (again, very roughly) 600 km/second with respect to something called the "Hubble flow" (look it up, I can't do everything for you) and at about 550 km/second with respect to the photons of the cosmic microwave background radiation (in the general direction of the constellation Hydra).
So "relative to what" is a very, very important question here.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoEarth takes 365 days to rotate around the sun. Which leads to one year. 24 hours leads to one day!
Hey peoples!
How is everyone?
Well I hope I answered your questions
Bye
adios
I love pie
I know I am out of the question
hahahha
lol
omg
bye!
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoabout 365-366, count how many days are in a year and BOOM! you got it
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoAbout 365 1/4. The exact length of a year varies, depending on what you use as a reference point.
Wiki User
∙ 16y agoVery close to 365 and 1/4 rotations per year.

How much does the earth rotate in 15 minutes?
in one minute the earth spins 28km, so it spins 420km in 15 minutes
How fast does the earth rotate around the sun at?
The Earth does NOT rotate around the Sun. It has an orbital track, on which it takes one year to complete. The Earth moves along that orbital track at approximately 66,000 mph (30 km/sec). The Earth ROTATES on its own axis to give us night and day. This rotation has a speed of 1,000 mph at the Equator, 500 mph at 60 degrees N/S , and you rotate on the spot at the poles. (N/S).
How long do planets take to rotate once?
It very much depends which planet you mean, as it depends on dozens of factors! Referring to Earth, it takes one day (24 hours) to rotate once around it's own axis.
Which word describes the earths motion in one year?
It takes one year for Earth to revolve around the Sun. One day for Earth to rotate on its axis.
Is this the answer the moon unlike the earth does not rotate so you see the same side of the moon?
That isn't the answer. The reason why only one side of the moon is visible from the surface of the Earth is that the moon always keeps one side facing the Earth, which requires it to rotate once for each revolution of its orbit.
How much does earth in one hours?
How much does earth rotate in one hour
How much does the earth rotate in 15 minutes?
in one minute the earth spins 28km, so it spins 420km in 15 minutes
Why must the earth rotate?
If the earth does not rotate, we will not have night and day. One side of the world will always be dark, and one side will always be light.
How may times does the sun rotate around the earth i one year?
The sun does not rotate around the earth. Ever. The Earth rotates around the sun once in one year.
How many days does moon takes to rotate earth?
Moon takes 27 days to rotate earth for one cycle.
How much does mercury rotate in one day?
It does not rotate in one day it does three rotations about its axis for every two orbits. One orbit takes 87.969 Earth days. Which is 126675.36 minuits or 2111.256 hours.
What is numbers of days on earth it takes to rotate?
One
In what directions do earth rotate?
The earth only rotates in one direction. It rotates clockwise.
Does the earth rotate in more than one direction at once?
no
What does it take the earth one day to do?
Rotate 360 degrees
How much topsoil is there on earth?
LESS than one thirty - second of it!
If the earth takes thirty days to rotate how long would one day be?
the world only take one day to rotate, x
