How many hours does it take for the earth to make a complete rotation?

Answer 1

The Sun does not go around the Earth. The Earth goes around the Sun. it does this in about 365.25 days.

The illusion that the Sun goes around the Earth is caused by the fact that the Earth rotates on its own axis every 24 hours, making it seem as if the Sun travels across the sky.

Answer 2

365 days or 1 year. So a little multiplying will give you an estimate of the number of hours. To get a better estimate, find a closer figure for the number of days in one year. A closer and very popular estimate is 365.25 days in one year. You can find estimates that are closer still. Go to the Earth link below, look at the bar on the right and scroll down a little.

Answer 3

While there is no absolute definitive answer to this question, most recent estimates say about 240 million years. I know what you are thinking, "What!?" It is true. As the Sun is in the center of the solar system and the Earth rotates around the Sun, the Sun must rotate completely around the center of the Galaxy to ensure it has completely circled the Earth.

Answer 4

Actually, the sun doesn't go around the Earth, though it may seem like it does. The Earth goes around the sun instead. Though I do admit that it does look like the Sun goes around us.

You would think that we would at least be able to feel the Earth revolving at impossible speeds; i.e. 100 Thousand kilometres and hour. Aw well, that's gravity for you!

Hope this helped!

Answer 5

It takes approximately 24 hours for the Earth to make a complete rotation on its axis, resulting in a day.

Answer 6

8,766.152784 hours.

The Earth takes 365.256366 days to orbit the Sun. So multiply by 24 for hours.

Answer 7

8,766hours

plus another 9minutes 9.8seconds (rounded)

Answer 8

The Earth makes one complete rotation every 24 hours.

Answer 9

It takes the Earth 525,600 hours to make one complete revolution around the sun.

Answer 10

365 days, 5 hours, 49 minutes and 1.20 seconds (or 365.242375 days).

dunno how many hours that is, cba to do the maths
