The axis is the imaginary line that would go through both earth's poles. Imagine earth's orbit around the sun as a disc. The orbit forms the edges of the disc. That is what is meant by the "plane" of our orbit around the sun. The earth is pointed away from the sun in the Northern summer and away from it in the Northern winter.

What is one complete spin on earths axis called?
That's "rotation".
The spinning of earth on its axis that causes day and night is called?
Rotation
What action causes day and night the earth orbits the sun or Earth rotates on its axis?
The earth rotates on its axis.
What is it called when earth spins each complete spin?
Each spin of the earth is called a rotation of the earth on it's axis.
What does the earth make one of on its axis everyday?
The Earth makes one complete rotation on its axis every day, which causes day and night to occur.
How many days does the earth spin on its axis?
it never stops spining. One complete rotation of the earth on its axis is called ONE DAY
What is the turning of earth called?
The turning of Earth is called rotation. Earth rotates on its axis, which takes approximately 24 hours to complete one full rotation. This rotation is what causes day and night.
What is one complete spin on the earth's axis known as?
one complete on the earth's axis is known as a rotation
What makes a day the length it is?
a complete rotation of earth on its axis takes about 24 hours, this is the length of a day.
The time required for the Earth to rotate once on its axis is called what?
The time required for the Earth to rotate once on its axis is called a day. This rotation takes approximately 24 hours to complete.
How many times does the moon rotate on it's axis as it makes a complete orbit around the Earth?
Once, it is in a synchronous orbit with Earth
What is on complete spin of earth on its axis?
a day
What is the time required for the earth to rotate once on its axis called?
That period of time is called a " sidereal day ". That's not the period of time for your clockor wristwatch to make a complete rotation.The earth's rotation is 23hours 56minutes and roughly 4seconds.
The earth makes one complete turn on its axis every?
24 hours. This is called a "solar day". Well, to be precise, exactly one rotation of the Earth is 23 hours 56 minutes. This is called a "sidereal day", or a day with reference to the fixed stars. The Earth is moving at about 67,000 miles per hour in its orbit, so it takes the Earth another 4 minutes to spin around to have the same alignment with the Sun as the previous day.
How many rotations can the earth make as it completes a revolution around the sun?
During each complete revolution around the sun, the earth makes 365.24 rotations on its axis.
