The period of the moon's rotation on its axis is?
The period of the moon's rotation on its axis is the same as its orbital period around the Earth, which is approximately 27.3 days. This synchronous rotation means the same side of the moon always faces Earth.
The three movements of the moon?
1.Revolution (the earth and moon revolve around their common centre of mass) 2.Rotation. (the moon rotates around its own axis 3. The moon orbits the sun in company with the earth.
Does moon revolves or rotate around earth?
The Moon both revolves (orbits) around the Earth and rotates on its axis. It takes about 27.3 days for the Moon to make one orbit around the Earth and also about the same amount of time (27.3 days) for it to complete one rotation on its axis. This synchronous rotation is why we always see the same side of the Moon facing Earth.
What do moons rotate on?
The moon rotates on its own geometrical axis. It revolves around the Earth.
How long does it take for the moon to spin on its axis and orbit the earth?
It takes the Moon about 27.3 days to complete one full rotation on its axis (a lunar day) and the same amount of time to complete one orbit around the Earth (a lunar month). This synchronous rotation is why we always see the same side of the Moon facing the Earth.
The period of the moon's rotation on its axis is?
The period of the moon's rotation on its axis is the same as its orbital period around the Earth, which is approximately 27.3 days. This synchronous rotation means the same side of the moon always faces Earth.
How long does it take the moon torevolve around the earth?
The moon completes an orbital revolution around earthand a rotation on its own axis both in 27.32 days.
What 2 motions does the moon have?
rotation on axis and revolving around earth
How long does it take the moon to make a full rotation on its axis?
27.3 days.
How long does it take the moon to spin spin once on its axis?
The moon spins once on its axis every month; one sidereal period around earth is equal to one complete rotation on its axis. If the moon did not rotate, all of its surface would be visible from earth over the course of a month.

This synchronous rotation is why we always see the same side of the Moon facing Earth.
Why is one face of the moon always seen?
This is because the moon's rotation on its own axis exactly matches its rotation around the earth, meaning the same face of the moon is always facing the earth
How long deos it take for the moon to orbit the earth?
The moon completes one orbital revolution around the earth in 27.32 days. The moon also completes one rotation on its axis in exactly the same time.
What do moons rotate on?
The moon rotates on its own geometrical axis. It revolves around the Earth.
What is Saturn's rotation time around the moon?
Saturn does not orbit the moon, it orbits the sun. This is called its revolution, not its rotation. Saturn's period of rotation on its axis is 10 hours 33 minutes. Its period of revolution around the sun 29.45 years.
