Which way does the earth rotate toward the east or toward the west?
The Earth rotates from west to east. This means that when looking down at the North Pole, the Earth is spinning counterclockwise.
Witch way does the earth spin?
Well, the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. So, if the Sun is not actually moving, then the Earth must be rotating (spinning) on its axis from west to east (counterclockwise when viewed from the north pole).
What determines east and west?
East and west are determined by the Earth's rotation on its axis from west to east. Specifically, east is the direction toward which the Earth rotates, while west is the opposite direction. This means that east is where the sun rises and west is where it sets.
Is the Earth rotating backwards?
No, the Earth is not rotating backwards. It rotates on its axis in a consistent direction from west to east, which is counterclockwise when viewed from above the North Pole.
How can a star be in the east in morning and west at night?
Because the earth is rotating and the stars are still.
What direction is the earth rotating?

What direction of the Earth does the sun rise on?
In general the sun appears to rise from an easterly diection. Obviously because of the tilt of the Earth the exact direction appears slightly different everyday of the year and the location at which the person stands on the Earth. On two days of the year, the Equinoxes, the sun appears to rise in the East and set on the West for everybody.
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.
Is it right earth is rotating east to west on itself while we watch from the north pole?
If you stood on the North Pole, you would be turning anti-clockwise (right to left). If you stood on the Equator, you would be moving towards the East, which is why the Sun rises in the East and goes down in the West.
What planet does not rotate from weat to east?
Venus rotates from East to West, the opposite of the Earth. It is thought though that it's North pole is actually at the opposite end to ours, meaning that it is rotating West to East, but doing it upside down.
