364.5 times as it takes that many days to revolve around the sun and the earth spins once every twenty four hours.
Why is day twenty four hours long?
that's how long it takes for the earth to go all the way around
The earth rotates 60degrees does in?
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).
How many rotations does the earth make in twenty four hours?
The Earth completes one full rotation on its axis in approximately 24 hours, resulting in one day. This rotation is what gives us day and night as different parts of the Earth are exposed to sunlight.
How many hours does it take for the earth to rotate?
24 hours (approximately). The "solar day" is exactly 24 hours, but it actually takes about 23 hours and 56 minutes for the Earth to rotate once.The extra four minutes are needed to allow for the change in position of the Sun in the sky due to the Earth orbiting the Sun.Answer:While the basis for the hour is the length of the "solar day" split into 24 parts (so you'd think the day should be 24 hours long - exactly), this is only an average value, not an absolute value. At the equinoxes and solstices the day can be up to 19 seconds longer or shorter. Added to this is the gradual slowing down of the Earth's rotation due to the tidal friction which stretches the day slightly longer than it was in the past.Edit: To clarify that Answer, there is something called the "sidereal day" which is the rotation time. But there's also the "solar day" which is exactly 24 hours.That's what we normally call "a day", on Earth. Strictly speaking it's called the "mean solar day".The word "mean" is just another way of saying "average".There are variations in the "apparent solar day", but the "mean solar day"averages out all the slight differences. This gives us the exact 24 hour daywhich is, of course, much more convenient.

How manytimes does the earth rotate every 24 hours?
The Earth completes a single total rotation every twenty four hours. It takes the Earth 365 days to rotate around the sun though! (365.25 days if you want to get technical.)
How long does it take earth rotate once on it's axis?
It takes twenty-four hours or one day. That is why we have night and day.
Which planet takes twenty four hours to rotate once on its axis?
Earth takes a bit less than 24 hours to complete one rotation (day). The day on Mars is a bit longer at 24.6 Earth hours.
How may time does the earth spin completely around its axis in twenty four hours?
One time. It takes a full year for the Earth to revolve around the sun, but it takes Earth only one day to rotate on its axis. The actual time it takes the earth to rotate is 23 hours and 56 minutes. That is why we have an extra day every four years, known as leap year. But yes one rotation is known as a day or 24 hours officially.
How many times does the Earth rotate on it's axis for everytime that it revolves around the sun?
364.5 times as it takes that many days to revolve around the sun and the earth spins once every twenty four hours.
How long does it take to rotate on its axits?
The time it takes for a planet to rotate on its axis varies depending on the planet. For example, Earth takes about 24 hours to complete one full rotation (a day), while Mars takes about 24.6 hours. Venus has an extremely slow rotation, completing one rotation in about 243 Earth days.
How much time does it take the earth to rotate at 60 degrees?
For Earth to rotate 60° will take four hours. Ish.Earth takes 24 hours (approximately) to rotate a full 360°. 60° is 1/6 of this, so divide the full 24 hours by 6 to get 4 hours.
