The term rotation refers to the Earth turning on its axis once per day.
The term revolution refers to the earth circling the sun once per year.
What else can I help you with?
Is it true that tides are created by the difference between the gravitational force at Earths surface and at Earths center?
Yes, that's basically what causes tides. ===================== And the moon. Lets not forget its role.
How does gravity effect earths rotation and revolution?
The Earth's rotation on its axis is not directly affected by gravity except that gravity holds Earth together as a sphere.Earth's revolution round the Sun is an "orbit" which obeys the laws of gravity.There is also a slight transfer of the rotational energy of the Sun to Earth's revolution speed. The Sun's spin is slowing and Earth is moving away form the Sun a little. {Note, this effect is far more pronounced between the Earth and the Moon].
What is the difference between seasons and day and night?
Seasons refer to the long-term changes in temperature and weather patterns that occur over the course of a year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. Day and night, on the other hand, are the result of the Earth's rotation on its axis, causing different parts of the Earth to be exposed to sunlight or darkness at different times. Seasons are linked to the position of the Earth in its orbit around the sun, while day and night are related to the rotation of the Earth on its axis.
Does the earths revolution around the sun causes the sun to rise in the east and set in the west everyday?
No, the Earth's revolution around the sun is not related to the rising and setting of the sun on a daily basis, which is caused by the Earth's rotation on its axis.
What is the rotation and revolution of a planet?
The revolution of a planet refers to the entire elliptical "race-track" path that it travels around the sun. Within our solar system, the time for the planets to complete one full revolution ranges from 88 Earth-days to 248 Earth-years. The time it takes for one of the Earth's revolutions around the sun is 1 year.
Are the earths rotation and revolution periods the same?
no they are not
What are earths two main motions called?
Rotation and Revolution.
How were time zones designed?
because of the earths rotation and revolution.
What is by the rotation and revolution of the planet?
the earths rotation around the sun is 365 days . hope this helps (:
What is the difference between earth's rotation and facing time?
by the earths rotation around the sun and the pattern in day and night and how the earth moves and how the earth revolves and rotate around the sun.
What is the difference between earths spin and the moons spin?
The earth's period of rotation is a few minutes short of 24 hours, whereas the moon's period of rotation is a bit over 27 days.
What earths two main motions called?
Rotation and Revolution.
What causes day and night on earth earths revolution around the sun or earth's rotation on its axis?
Earth's rotation on its axis causes day and night. Earth's revolution around the sun causes the seasons.
What is the difference between the earth's rotation and the earths revolution. What causes the earth to have seasons. What causes the earth to have days and nights?
Those are three different questions; you would be better of asking them as three different questions on this site. The difference between rotation and revolution is that "rotation" refers to a movement of an object around its own axis; while "revolution" refers to a movement around an external object or axis - in this case, around the Sun.
How the earth movements affect climate?
earths axis is little tilted which makes its rotation different at different points of time. this change in rotation and the significant difference of distant between the earth and the sun affects the climate
What is the difference between the earths atmosphere and the earths gravity?
The two are completely unrelated.
What are the earths two principal motions?
The two principal motions of Earth are rotation and revolution. Rotation refers to the spinning of Earth on its axis, which causes day and night. Revolution refers to Earth's orbit around the sun, which takes approximately 365.25 days to complete.
