During the day, sunlight provides both light and heat. At night, it is dark and it cools off.
No, the elliptical shape of Earth's orbit around the sun does not affect day and night. Day and night are primarily determined by the rotation of Earth on its axis, which causes different parts of the planet to face towards or away from the sun. The orbit's shape primarily influences the intensity and duration of seasons on Earth.
The planet is Mercury. (Some people think it is Venus, but it is Mercury.)
Day and night on Earth are caused by the rotation of the planet on its axis. As Earth spins, different parts of the planet receive sunlight or darkness, creating the cycle of day and night. This rotation takes approximately 24 hours to complete.
I think they all do in this solar system, but maybe someplace with two suns has a planet without night. On a binary star system when the planet move between the stars in part of it's year there will be no night or only daylight.
A planet completes one rotation on its axis every day, causing day and night cycles.
no,planet has a star day and night
if we didn't have an atmosphere during the day our planet would be very hot and during the night our planet would be very cold
During its rotation around its own axis half of the planet faces the sun [day] and half faces away from the sun [night] As the planet continues to turn so night slowly turns into day and then day into night and so on.
It doesn't. The suns output of sunlight can be considered constant over the period humans evolved. The only thing that affects day and night is when our planet rotates and exposes a different part to the sunlight.
It doesn't. Day and night are planetary phenomena caused by the rotation of the planet.
the same thing that causes day and night on every other planet - it rotates.
Rotation of the planet on its axis causes night and day to happen on all planets. This rotation causes different parts of the planet to face the sun at different times, leading to periods of light (day) and darkness (night).
Earth does.
Because of the difference in speed of rotation of each planet.
If there wasn't day or night on any part of the planet then the planet would not exist. Therefore the question would not exist, neither would you. If there was day, their would be a light source, if their was night, then by virtue, the preceding hours would have been day. Without day, there could be no night. So without day or night is impossible.
If a planet is not turning on its axis, then essentially there is no day and night. One side of the planet would be day, the other, night. I personally think the day side of the planet would roast and the night side would freeze, but that's just me.Note: In fact, the planet would have long days and nights because of its orbit around the Sun.
