What direction do the earth and moon orbit?
If you stood at the north pole and jumped up to look down on our solar system, the earth would be orbiting counter-clockwise, as well as spinning counter-clockwise. The moon would also be orbiting counter-clockwise, as well as spinning counter-clockwise at 1 revolution per orbit. The Earth then rotates 366.25 times per year approximately, which makes for 365.25 days since one is taken up by orbiting the sun.
What is the rotation of the planets in clockwise and counter clockwise?
earth or venus
How is the earth is rotating whether in clockwise or anticlockwise?
It depends on where are you standing, over the North pole, or over (or should I say under) the South pole. If you are at the north pole, the Earth appears to spin counter clockwise and at the south pole, clockwise. If you view the Earth from space, with the north pole up and the south pole down, it will spin moving left to right at the equator.
What direct does the earth spin?
east to west < wrong! the sun rises in the East and sets in the West because the earth spins the opposite way. Think about it. Well the earth spins counter-clockwise, so the sun will rise in the East and set in the West because of the rotation its spinning in.
Why does the moon counter-clockwise around the earth and not clockwise?
because of the way the moon looks to us

Does earth move counter or clockwise?
The Earth spins Counter-Clockwise.
What direction is the earth spinning in?
counter-clock wise from east to west, as viewed from above the north pole.
Does the moon move clockwise or counter-clockwise around earth?
The moon moves counter-clockwise around the earh

Does earth move counter or clockwise around Sun?
The earth moves towards the east-this means it turn counter clockwise in relation to the sun.

east to west < wrong! the sun rises in the East and sets in the West because the earth spins the opposite way. Think about it. Well the earth spins counter-clockwise, so the sun will rise in the East and set in the West because of the rotation its spinning in.
Why does sun rises from the east?
The sun rises in the east due to the stationary position of the sun, and the relative position of the Earth. If the Earth's axis is considered up, then, when looking down at the North Pole, the Earth is spinning counter-clockwise.
Does your planet spin clockwise?
Well the earth spins counter clockwise on its axis.
What way does earth orbit?
counter-clockwise (or anti-clockwise if you're in the UK)
How earth rotation different from venus?
Earth turns clockwise yet venus turns counter clockwise
