Do other planets rotate?

Yes, some faster than others. In fact, virtually all spacial bodies rotate.


Why are objects on earth attracted o the earth but not to each other?

Objects on Earth are attracted to the Earth due to its massive gravitational pull, which is a result of its large mass. While all objects do exert gravitational forces on each other, these forces are usually negligible compared to the Earth's gravitational pull, especially for smaller objects. Therefore, the dominant force acting on them is the Earth's gravity, making them fall towards it rather than being significantly attracted to each other.


Why are objects on earth attached to the earth but not to each other?

Objects on Earth are attached to it due to the force of gravity, which pulls them toward the planet's center. While objects do exert gravitational forces on each other, these forces are relatively weak compared to the Earth's gravitational pull, especially for small objects. As a result, the Earth's gravity dominates, keeping objects anchored to it rather than causing them to clump together. Additionally, other forces, such as friction and air resistance, also play a role in keeping objects from moving freely toward one another.


Why does the moon not rotate as does the earth?

The moon does rotate on its axis as the earth does. The earth rotates once in a day and the moon rotates once in a month ( for those who want to quibble, it's a little more than 27 days ). ADD---the moon rotate at the same speed of the earth, that why we always see the same side of the moon which give the impresion that the moon doesnt rotate but it does!


Do the gas planets rotate slower or faster than earth?

Gas planets typically rotate faster than Earth. For example, Jupiter rotates the quickest with a day length of about 10 hours, Saturn has a day length of about 10.7 hours, Uranus about 17 hours, and Neptune about 16 hours. In comparison, Earth rotates once every 24 hours.

What 2 thing rotate around the Earth?

There are far more than two objects in orbit since the first Sputnik. If the question refers to only natural objects, there is a body sometimes called "Earth's second Moon" but it's not; it merely has its own orbit around the Sun close to the Earth's.


Does Saturn rotate quicker than the Earth?

yes

Moon is to satellite and earth is to?

planet A better answer might be "primary". Objects other than planets can have satellites.
