Does the moon rotate around the planets?
Yes. Each moon revolves around its own planet. Our Moon revolves around Earth.
What Direction is moons revolution?
If you were in space, hovering high above the north pole, looking down upon Earth, you would observe the earth revolving about its axis (rotating) in counter-clockwise direction. The moon orbits the earth also in a counter-clockwise direction, and once each orbit, the moon revolves around its own axis, also in a counter-clockwise direction.
How do the Earth and the Moon affect each other?
The moon revolves around the Earth the same way the Earth revolves around the Sun, and for the same reason; gravity pulls them into orbit. However, the moon has its effects on the Earth, too; it has its own field of gravity, which stretches the Earth into a slight ovular shape by pulling the water, causing what we know as tides.
What are examples of an orbit?
Examples of orbits include the orbit of the Earth around the Sun, the Moon around the Earth, and artificial satellites orbiting the Earth. Additionally, planets in our solar system like Mars or Venus also have their own orbits around the Sun.
What causes the Moon's appearance to change as it revolves around earth?
the sun because the moon doesnt make its own light
What do we mean when we say the earth rotates and revolves?
A rotating object is spinning, like a top, or the central part of a gyroscope. Earth's movement in its orbit around the sun each year is called revolution. Earth rotates on its axis causing day and night, and it revolves around the sun, marking the passages of years.
In how many days moon satellite revolves around its own axis?
The earth's moon rotates on its axis in exactly the same period of time required for it to revolve around the earth once in its orbit ... 27.32 days.
Does the moon rotate around the planets?
Yes. Each moon revolves around its own planet. Our Moon revolves around Earth.
How does the Moon's rate of rotation about its own axis compare with its rate of revolution around Earth?
This has to do with the different orbital planets of Earth and the Moon. Earth revolves around the Sun in flat planar orbit. The Moon similarly revolves about Earth in flat planar orbit. But the planets are slightly tipped with respect to each other - a 5.2* tilt The moons rotation on its axis is equal to its orbit round the Earth with respect to the sun and stars. It presents one side permanently to the Earth so in relation to the earth it does not rotate.
Does the moon revolve around earth and revolves on its own axis?
Yes.
Does the moon Luna rotate around the earth as it revolves around it?
No. The Moon rotates around its own axis as it revoles around Earth.
Does the earth rotate or revole about its own axis?
The Earth rotates on its own axis, completing one full rotation approximately every 24 hours. This rotation is what causes day and night on Earth. The Earth also revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit, completing one full orbit roughly every 365.25 days.
Why does the Earth revolve around us?
It doesn't. When something moves around something else, we talk about "revolution" (verb: revolves); the Earth revolves around the Sun. When something moves around its own center, we talk about "rotation" - in this case, the Earth rotates around its axis. It neither revolves nor rotates around us.
Do the earth and moon revolve around the sun?
The Moon orbits the Earth. The Earth orbits around The Sun. The Earth revolves (spins) around it's own axis.

Movements of the moon?
the moon is spinning around us very slowly
