1 week = 7 days

The Earth spins nominally once per day = 7 times per week.

-----------------------------

More precisely, the Earth spins once every 23 hours 56 minutes 4 seconds.

That's 7.01916 times in 7 solar days. (rounded)

The Earth rotates once every day; so seven times per week.

-----

Actually, it is a little more complicated than that.

A week is period of seven days, with 365.25 days being fairly close to a year, or a single orbit around the sun.

The problem arises because the earth has gone around the sun once to in the course of a year. If it were not spinning at all, but just orbiting the sun, each part of the earth would get half a year of day and half a year of night. A planet orbiting a star either does one more revolution or one less than the number of days it has, depending on the direction it is spinning.

In our case, there are 365.25 days in the year, but the earth spins around relative to the stars 366.25 times to produce them. So the earth spins 7 times in a week relative to the sun, and about 7.02 spins relative to the rest of the universe.

6.98088776 times.

Or if you fancy the simplistic answer 7 times.

At one day per complete spin, the Earth will spin 2 x 7 = 14 times.

In one week how many times will earth rotate on its axis?

Earth rotates approximately once every day. More accurately, once every 23h56m.


How many times can the moon rotate around the earth in a week?

The moon rotates around the earth every 27.3 days. So in one week it makes it only about 1/4 of the way around, and half way in two weeks.


How many times does the earth make complete rotations in a 2 week period?

Answer #1:It takes just under 24 hours for the Earth to rotate once on its axis.So in a two-week period (14 days)it would be 14 complete rotations.================================Answer #2:It takes 23.9344696 hours (rounded) for the Earth to rotate on its axis.Two weeks means 14 days of 24 hours each. So in a period of two weeks,the earth makes 14.038331 complete rotations. None of this has anythingto do with the number of days in a year.To put it another way, the Earth completes 14 rotations about 55minutes 3secondsbefore the two weeks has ended. That's why two weeks from today, any starwill reach the same place in the sky about an hour earlier than it gets there tonight.

How many complete rotation in one week?

There is 7 complete rotations in a week. As the earth rotation takes 24 hours to complete while a complete orbit is 1 year or 365 and a quarter days. It takes 23 hours 56 minutes for the earth to rotate once on it axis. It takes 1 year for the earth to go all the way around the sun.


What is the total number of complete rotations that Earth makes in 2 weeks.Option :12714?

Well, one complete rotation on Earths axis lasts about 24 hours. (23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds to make a 360 degree rotation to be exact). There are 7 days in a week, and one Earth day lasts approximately 24 hours, so that means that in one week, it will make 7 complete rotations on its axis.


How do you calculate when it will be a 53 week year?

There will not be a 53 week year. The way the earth rotates and revolves means that there will only be 365 days in a year, except leap years, when there are 366. However, this still fits a 52 week cycle.
