Day and night and the seasons
The earth's rotation results in daytime and nighttime.
The speed of Earth's rotation on its axis determines the length of a day. A faster rotation results in shorter days, while a slower rotation results in longer days.
When the moon's period of rotation is equal to its period of revolution, it results in synchronous rotation. This means the same side of the moon always faces the Earth.
The rotation of the Earth results in its day and night cycles. The exception to this is in the polar regions that have day and night for 6-months each due the Earth's tilt.
A day. seasonal? 3 months? one rotation is 24hrs. one revolution is 1 year.
The equatorial bulge is caused by the Earth's rotation. As the Earth spins on its axis, the centrifugal force generated by this rotation causes the planet to bulge at the equator. This bulge results in the Earth being slightly wider at the equator than it is at the poles.
A day on Earth is caused by the planet's rotation on its axis, which takes approximately 24 hours to complete. This rotation results in the cycle of daylight and darkness that we experience as the sun appears to rise and set each day.
The rotation of the Earth is called as the spinning of the Earth in its axis.
Another name for Earth rotation is diurnal motion or daily rotation.
The spinning of Earth on its axis is known as its rotation. It takes approximately 24 hours for Earth to complete one full rotation. This rotation is what causes day and night to occur.
No, oil has nothing to do with the earth's rotation.
The rotation of the earth results in what is known as the Coriolus Effect.
