All celestial objects - the Sun, Moon, planets and stars - rise in the east and set in the west.

The appearance of things "rising" and "setting" in the sky is caused by the Earth's 24-hour rotation. Everything "rises" in the East.
The earth spins at approx 1000 mile per hour. This is quite simple to calculate - the circumference of the planet is 24000 miles approx - and there are 24 hours in a day.
The speed of the rotation of the Earth is, at the equator, about 1040 miles per hour. It decreases as you go north or south, and you can approximate this speed as Cosine(Latitude)*1040. Basically, if you fly a passenger jet from New York to San Francisco, you're just about standing still while the Earth turns beneath you. The Earth moving in its orbit goes about 67,000 miles per hour; a little faster in January at perihelion, and a little slower in July, at aphelion.
hi earth rotate two time in 24 hour at 180 degree ..because earth is round and it has total longitude 360 degree and earth take 24 hour to move on its axis .. so it cover two time rotate of 180 degree
the rotation of the earth around the sun. * * * * * No. It is the rotation of the earth on its own axis.
The speed of rotation is greatest at the equator; 1038 miles per hour.
The linear speed of the Earth's rotation at any latitude can be calculated by multiplying the cosine of the latitude by the equatorial rotational speed of the Earth, which is approximately 1670 kilometers per hour (1037 miles per hour). At latitude 60.24 degrees north, the linear speed of the Earth's rotation would be approximately 835 kilometers per hour (519 miles per hour).

One rotation per hour!One rotation per hour!One rotation per hour!One rotation per hour!
It takes about 24 hours for Earth to complete one full rotation of spin.
The Earth's rotation greatly enhances the even distribution of heat from insolation, and is the cause of the 24-hour night and day cycle of illumination over most of the Earth.
No, the earth's orbit around the sun is its revolution ( 1 degree per day ) Earth's rotation is on its own axis ( 15 degrees per hour) We ROTATE and REVOLVE at THE SAME TIME!!!
it means you're a dum4ss . But seriously: One rotation of the Earth is a 24 hour day.
earth completes a full rotation on its axis and thats why we have day and night because of much direct light earths getting from the sun
An hour is a period defined for Earth beings. However, an hour being a part of a rotation of a planet, based on Earths period of rotation, then an hour on Pluto would be:- R / 24 where R is the rotation period. Pluto =~ 6.4 Earth Days. So 6.4 / 24
