Which way does earth rotate?
If you "stand" above the North Pole and look down it will appear to turn anti-clockwise. Looking at it from above the equator, it appears to turn from left to right.If you were hanging up above the north pole, looking down at the earth, you would seethe earth spinning counterclockwise, right to left, west to east.
What direction do the planets rotate?
Most of the planets in our solar system rotate on their axis from west to east; i.e., counter-clockwise as seen by an observer looking down from high above the Earth's north pole. Hence an observer near the equator of the earth, for example, would see the sun rise in the east, and later set in the west. This is the same direction in which they orbit the sun. The exceptions are Venus which rotates the opposite direction, and Uranus which rotates almost "on its side" (axis tilt of about 90 degrees).
What are some of the reasons the moon goes down at night when it's not even late?
Some of the reasons?? The grammar is awful... Use google. This website is weak. Well, the earth rotates on its axis which is not perpendicular to the plane on which the planet orbits the sun; this is what causes seasons. e.g.) If the Northern Hemisphere is pointing toward the sun and the southern hemisphere pointed away then it is summer in the N.H. and winter in the S.H. The earth will continuously point in the same direction regardless of what side of the sun it is on. Then we have the moon which orbits the earth, which orbits the sun. The position of the moon in relation to the sun and the earth is what cause the phases of the moon; it takes the moon 29.5 days to rotate around the earth. (The moon does not rotate and even if it did we would still experience the phases of the moon). So, It takes the earth 23 hours and 56 minutes to rotate 360 degrees on its axis. It takes the moon 29.5 days to rotate around the earth. As the moon is "going down" every night or "coming up" every morning it is merely our perspective from our ever rotating earth. The moon will appear to go around the earth every 24 hours because the earth rotates every 24 hours and all of our surroundings will appear to move around us. As this is happening (the rotation of our earth) the moon is actually rotating around the earth, you could see how our perspective of the location of the moon in our sky will change vastly everyday for the moon completes a cycle in only 29.5 days. Hope this helps... Seriously though google it next time. :]
Which direction does the Earth rotate around the Sun?
The Earth rotates counterclockwise when you look down its axis of rotation from the North Pole. As the Earth revolves around the Sun, it turns counterclockwise when you look down the its axis of rotation from the north. The Sun rotates with its equator inclined only 7.25 degrees to the Earth's orbit, and most of the other planets' equators are tipped less than 30 degrees. Apparently, the preferred direction of motion in the Solar System is counterclockwise as seen from the north. All the planets revolve counterclockwise around the Sun, and, with the exception of Venus and Uranus, they rotate counterclockwise on their axes.
What direction does earth rotate?
the direction of the earths rotation is right The direction of the earth's rotation is East. There are many other answers depending on the position and orientation of the observer relative to the earth. For example, if the observer is facing the globe from a position above the north pole, the rotation appears to be counter-clockwise. If the observer is facing the globe from a position above the south pole, the rotation appears to be clockwise. If the observer is facing the globe from a position above the equator, the rotation appears to be to the right if the observer is oriented so that North is "up" and south is "down". However, if the observer is "upside down"(a northern hemisphere bias), the rotation appears to be to the left.
How will the Earth rotate without moon?
The Earth's rotation is not dependent on the Moon; without the Moon, the Earth would still rotate. However, the Moon's gravitation gradually slows down Earth's rotation, so without the Moon, it is possible that Earth would now be rotating faster.The Earth's rotation is not dependent on the Moon; without the Moon, the Earth would still rotate.

Which way is earth turning?
The Earth rotates towards the east. Or, if you were looking down on it from above the North Pole, it would rotate counter-clockwise.
At what point of the earth will you position yourself so that you can see the earth rotate in a clockwise direction?
Stand at the South Pole, and look down at the ground beneath your feet.
Which way does the earth rotate toward the east or toward the west?
The Earth rotates from west to east. This means that when looking down at the North Pole, the Earth is spinning counterclockwise.
What are the notes for down to earth on the keyboard?
i dont no but its a grat song! ;D
Why does earth rotate more faster than moon?
Earth has more mass, and therefore takes longer than the Moon to slow down in its rotation. But eventually, Earth, too, will slow down until it always shows the Moon the same side.
Why do earth rotate from west to east and the sun and stars rotate east to west?
Well, if you think about it, one is a consequence of the other. If you lie down on the ground and rotate (roll) west to east, everything around you that isn't moving will appear to you to rotate east to west (left to right if your head is pointing north).
Why cant the earth rotate or move through space?
The Earth, like every object in our Solar system is tied down by the huge gravity pull between the Sun and the object.
What would happen if earth took longer to rotate?
The day and night would be longer, so parts of the Earth might heat up or cool down more each day.
How Jump off the ground while laying down?
dont be scared!

Why does the earth roated?
Why does the earth rotate? Because it got hit by large meteors a long time ago which hit it and made it spin, but there are no forces to slow it down in the vacuum of space so it has carried on spinning.
