because that is how long the earth takes to make 1 full rotation on its axis
Earth days are 24 hours long (thats the time it takes to spin on its axis)
Earth years are 364 days, and 365 if its a leap year.
How come you dont know this...
23.93 hours. We have been LIED to!
Our day is based on the Earth's rotation, that is most people say it is 24 hours. If you want to get technical it takes 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4.2 seconds.
One earth day contains twenty four hours, right on the dot, assuming that no leap seconds have been added to or deleted from the day in question.
True
Earth day lasts 24 hours! During those 24 hours you are supposed to turn your lights off for 1 hour!
First understand that night is caused when a point on a planet rotates with the planet so that it is not pointing towards the sun (it rotates into the shadow of its planet). When it is pointing towards the sun it is day!On Earth as the planet rotates once on its axis every 24 hours, a point on its surface will be in shadow for 12 hours at a time and in daylight for the other 12 hours.------------------------------------------------------------When the Earth spins around on its axis, it creates night and day on Earth. This movement makes it look like the Sun is moving across the sky. The Sun rises in the east and sets in the west, turning day into night.Most places on Earth have some amount of day and night every 24 hours. On Earth, the length of day and night usually changes with the seasons.When your location on Earth is facing toward the sun, it is day. When your location is facing away from the sun, it is night.Only the half of the rotating Earth that faces the Sun is illuminated at any given time.
24 hours
one day on earth is 24 hours.
A day on Uranus is shorter than a day on Earth. Earth's day is roughly 24 hours long. A day on Uranus is 17 hours, 14 minutes long.
A day on Saturn is about 11 hours on Earth.
24 hours
24 hours a day
About 12 hours if you don't count the night.
One earth day is 24 hours no matter where you are.
16.11 hours.
3.9155 Earth-hours.
It is approx 4223 Earth-hours = 176 Earth-days long.
16.5 Earth Hours.
