What else can I help you with?
What direction does the earth go around his axis?
The Earth turns anticlockwise (counterclockwise in USA), moving from the West towards the East.
When does day and night occur?
For you, day occurs when the earth turns you in a direction where the sun can shine directly on you. Night occurs when the earth turns you in a direction where the sun can't shine on you, because part of the earth is in the way.For someone else in a different place, day and night may happen at different times from your day and night.
Is Venus' motion the same as Earth's?
Do you mean, Which direction it rotates? Well Venus turns the opposite direction. (the sun rises in the west and sets in the east.
Which cardinal direction does the earth rotate?
The Earth rotates towards the east. As viewed from the North Star, Polaris, the Earth turns anti clockwise
IS the moon facing west or east when it is a full moon?
The Moon has no east-west direction with respect to Earth. East-west describes the direction of, or opposite direction of a sphere that is rotating. (Like Earth.) As it turns out, the same side of the Moon always faces the Earth. The phases of the Moon, like full Moon, result from which direction the SUN is from the Moon and Earth.
In which direction does the earth always turn?
The Earth always rotates from west to east, which means the direction of rotation is eastward. This rotation gives us day and night as different parts of the Earth face the Sun.
How does night turns to day?
Simple, as the sun is in one direction, only half of the earth can see the sun but as the earth rotates on its axis, this half keeps moving and you get day and night
If you were in space above the north pole would the earth go east to west?
It doesn't matter where you are, the Earth turns west to east, which is why the Sun seems to go in the opposite direction.
What direction does a high pressure system turn?
In the Northern Hemisphere, a high pressure system typically rotates in a clockwise direction due to the Coriolis effect, which is the deflection of air currents caused by the Earth's rotation. In the Southern Hemisphere, it would rotate in a counterclockwise direction.
Is Singapore hotter than US?
Yes, the sun rays are only directed in one direction and since the earth turns and is slightly tilted, some parts of the earth receive less sunlight then the rest.
What happens if a spacecraft is orbiting the earth and wants to go faster so turns the engines on?
That depends upon the direction in which it is facing when it turns its engine on. If it faces the direction in which it is already moving, the added speed will cause it to move to a higher orbit. If it faces against the direction in which it is moving to slow down, it will move to a lower orbit (or re-enter the atmosphere). If it faces any other direction, its orbit will change in various other ways.
How many degrees are in four 30 degree turns?
If all four turns are in the same direction, then the result is the same as a single 120-degree turn. If three are in the same direction and one is in the opposite direction, then the result is the same as single 90-degree turn. If two are left turns and the other two are right turns, then the result is the same as no turns at all.
