What else can I help you with?
How do i know the earth is turning?
You can observe Earth's rotation by watching the movement of the stars in the night sky. As Earth rotates, the stars appear to move across the sky in an eastward direction. This phenomenon is known as diurnal motion and is evidence that the Earth is spinning on its axis.
How you know the crust of the earth is continually moving?
The most obvious evidence is that South America "fits" into Africa; this had been noticed as far back as the 16th century. More scientific evidence is that there are common plants and fossils on South America and African coasts. Nowadays, GPS navigation is precise enough to actually measure the continents moving. Also whenever there are earthquakes the earth is moving its plates which is more proof
How do your know the earth's plates are moving?
earthquakes
How do you know that it the earth is moving?
by the winter or summer
What does ultraviolet have to do with the sun and earth from moving slow?
nothing, as far as I know. The earth isn't moving slow, it's moving extremely fast.
How do scientists know the poles of the earth are moving?
a compass
How do you know that the earth is still moving today?
If the Earth were stationary, it would be pulled into the Sun. Also, we now the stars are at such a distance that they are, for most purposes, effectively stationary. The fact they are appearing to rotate around the Earth can only be interpreted as the Earth rotating.
How can the moon and sun tell us that the earth is moving?
The moon and sun can tell us that the earth is moving as our earth spins adding to the sight of turn of the Moon which we can see in the sky moving throughout the day. The sun can tell us the earth is moving as we can see shadows on people and objects moving around telling us something has to be moving. It has been scientificly proven that is not the Sun or "Sol" so we know it is the Earth.
What is the clue that the earth is moving?
The apparent movement of celestial objects across the sky is a clue that the Earth is moving. For example, the Sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west due to the Earth's rotation, while the changing positions of stars throughout the night indicate the Earth's rotation on its axis. Additionally, the changing positions of the planets over time are further evidence of Earth's orbital motion around the Sun.
There is evidence that the magnetic polarity of the earth has shifted several times in the past. what is the cause of this?
we do not know the cause
How Can the observation of stellar parallaxes in general be used as evidence against a geocentric view of the cosmos?
The observation of stellar parallaxes is evidence against a geocentric view of the cosmos because parallax shifts in the positions of stars as observed from Earth would not occur if the Earth were at the center of the universe. The fact that we can observe parallax in stars from different positions on Earth supports the heliocentric model, where Earth revolves around the Sun and is not at the center of the cosmos.
What is the word for when the sun appears to be moving across the sky because of the Earth's rotation?
The phrase I use is " the Sun's diurnal motion".I'm not sure there's just one word for this. Someone else may know better.(Diurnal means "daily".)
