Rotation or Rotating.

If you stand at either the North Pole or the South Pole , you just twist/rotate on the spot.

However, if you are at the Eqautor you are rotating at about 1,000 miles per hour.

At latitudes 60N & 60 S your rotational speed is about 500 miles per hour.

What is the earths axis and what does it cause?

The earth's axis is imaginary, and it doesn't cause anything.

The imaginary line that runs up the center of that imaginary pencil is called the axis of rotation.
