it is earth's gravity
Earth takes approximately 24 hours to complete one full rotation on its own axis. This rotation is what causes day and night on Earth.
It does NOT orbit on its axis, but rotates on its axis. It takes 24 hours, one day, to make one complete rotation. However, It does ORBIT the Sun. It takes the Earth 365.25 days, one year, for make one complete orbit of the Sun. Whilst it is making this orbit it is also rotating on its axis, as above.
One year
Yes, the moon does have an axis of rotation, but it is not tilted like the Earth's axis. The Moon's axis is nearly perpendicular to the plane of its orbit around Earth. This means that the Moon's poles do not experience the same seasonal variations as Earth's poles.
Because the Earth's axis is perpendicular to the Earth's orbit on that day.
the Earth rotates on an axis, that axis is tilted with respect to the axis of Earth's orbit, and Earth's orbit is slightly elliptical.
The tilt of the Earth's axis in relation to the plane of its orbit.
No. Earth's orbit is NOT tilted. Earth orbits the Sun in the same plane as the rest of the planets. What IS tilted is Earth's axis of spin (as compared to the plane of its orbit), It is this tilt of this axis that causes the seasons as Earth makes its annual orbit of the Sun.
Earth takes approximately 24 hours to complete one full rotation on its own axis. This rotation is what causes day and night on Earth.
Earth's axis tilts at very close to 23.5 degrees.
It depends if it is an orbit around it's axis or an orbit around the sun. Heres the answer for both: Sun Orbit: 687 Earth Days Axis Orbit: 687 Earth Days The funny thing is that their both still the same :)
The tilt of the earth's axis, and because of the earth's orbit.
The Earth's axis is tilted about 23 degrees.
0 days 9 hours 56 minutes in Earth Time by the way it is a complete rotation on its axis, not to orbit on its axis.
It does NOT orbit on its axis, but rotates on its axis. It takes 24 hours, one day, to make one complete rotation. However, It does ORBIT the Sun. It takes the Earth 365.25 days, one year, for make one complete orbit of the Sun. Whilst it is making this orbit it is also rotating on its axis, as above.
The axis is actually an imaginary line that the Earth spins around. It represents the tilt of the Earth relative to its orbit.
The Earth does not stay at rest due to the gravitational pull of other objects in the universe, such as the sun and moon. These forces create a dynamic system of interactions that keep the Earth in motion, causing it to orbit the sun and rotate on its axis.
