Almost everything that turns or spins in our solar system spins counter-clockwise. The Earth's orbit goes counterclockwise as seen from a location high above the north pole. The Earth SPINS CCW. The Moon orbits the Sun CCW. There are only a few items in the solar system that go the other way.

What direction does an applied force move an object?
it moves ----------> there for if you were to push the object it will go <--------
A transverse wave cause its medium to move in what direction?
Perpendicular to the direction the wave travels.
What are two reasons why you do not notice the land moving beneath you?
you don't notice the earth moving because everything else moves along with the earth as it moves.
What is the force that always acts opposite direction of movement and slows an object as it moves?
attrition
What is used to determine the direction of the wind?
Wind direction is determined by friction ,or the lack thereof ,surrounding the earth surface. Warm air from the equator rises, moves towards the poles, falls and returns to the equator. crossing water decreases friction, crossing a mountain increases friction.
Why does a satellite does not fdall into earth?
Because it moves fast. A satellite will, in fact, continuously "fall" (be accelerated) towards Earth, meaning that it changes its direction. Because it moves fast.

Warm air on earth moves in what direction where it cools?
Up into the sky.
How earth's rotation affects a pendulum?
A pendulum moves not by Earth's rotation, but by gravity pulling down and causing it to swing.
What direction does the moon travel around earth?
The moon travels around the earth in a counterclockwise direction. The moon moves from west to east. It moves around 12 degrees towards east in Earth's sky every day.
Which direction does the earth move eastwards or westwards?
The earth moves from west to east; it moves eastward. This is why we observe the sun rising in the east. We are moving toward it. From the north, we would see this as a counter-clockwise rotation of the earth on its axis.
What makes the stars appear to move accros the night sky and in what direction do they move?
because the earth moves(:
Which way does the earth rotate?
Counter-clockwise, as viewed from the north star. It moves to the direction from west to east
Food moves in what direction?
Peristalsis moves food in one direction.
Peristalsis moves food in what direction?
Peristalsis moves food in one direction.
What do you call the motion when a planet heads in the opposite direction?
A planet's predominant movement (NOT the daily movement related to Earth's rotation, but the apparent movement compared to the background stars) is from west to east. If a planet moves in this direction it is said to be "prograde", if it moves in the opposite direction, it is said to be "retrograde".
What keeps the moon in motion?
Newton's first law of motion. If there is no net force on an object, then its velocity is constant. The object is either at rest (if its velocity is equal to zero), or it moves with constant speed in a single direction. The moon moves in a single direction about the earth because it is kept from drifting away by earth's gravity.
What direction do objects moves when a force like push is applied?
It moves in the direction of the force acting on it.
