The earth rotates 60degrees does in?

Answer 1

360 degrees is the intuitive answer, but it is not correct. The earth completes a 360 degree rotation in about 23 hours, 56 minutes and some odd seconds, which is the sidereal, or true, rotational period of the earth. I don't know the exact degrees in 24 hours, but it will be reasonably close to 361 degrees (roughly 1 extra degree per day to account for a full rotation over the course of a year).

Answer 2

The Earth rotates 60 degrees in four hours. This is because the Earth rotates 360 degrees n 24 hours. So, it rotates 15 degrees per hour. Dividing 60 degrees by 15 degrees, you get the result 4 hours.

Answer 3

60 degrees / 360 degrees = x hours / 24 hours. This implies a time lapse of 4 hours.

Answer 4

The earth rotates 60 degrees in Four hours

Answer 5

Yes, the Earth rotates 15 degrees per hour, so in one hour it would rotate 15 degrees, not 60 degrees.
