'Length' of time = 23hours 56minutes 4seconds (rounded)
'Distance' . . . . .
Any point on Earth moves in a circular path during each rotation, roughly
24,900 times (cosine of its latitude) miles
23hours 56minutes 4seconds (rounded)
The length of the day
150 Million Kilometers... :) I am a 5th Grade Science Teacher Mrs.Badger :)
The tides are slowing the earths rotation and making the day longer.
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.
As the earth rotates the angle if the sunlight changes which affects shadows.
The days may feel longer after a tsunami but no, the length of the day depends on the earths rotation not tsunamis.
The length of a day would increase and the number days in a year would decrease.
rotation
24 hours rotation
it means that the earth will travel one spot and back to that same spot in 1 day
That's "rotation".
