When Earth Stop Rotating?

Answer 1

A very, very long time! The Earth will still be spinning when the Sun dies, and it will probably still be rotating slowly if/when the Universe nears its end!

The Earth rotates around the Sun, and around its own axis.

The Earth will still be spinning in 5 billion years when the Sun will turn into a red giant star and obliterate it.

The Earth's rotation around its own axis is continuously slowing down. The main reason is believed to be the act of tidal friction (primarily caused by the moon's action on the ocean). It slows down at 1.7ms every 100 years. At this rate it will take almost 1.9 trillion years to stop spinning.

The rotation around the Sun is slowing at the rate of 1.4ms every year - or 23 billion years to stop orbiting the sun.

Howerver, this slowing can be accelerated, and if it goes much slower than it is now, 2/3 will be inhabitable, we will run out of air, cities will be flooded and some will get dry.

Answer 2

The spin of the earth on its axis, the rotation of of earth around the sun, and the similar motion of all other planets and bodies in our solarsystem wont change unless there is somthing to oppose the force. There is no air resistance in the vacuum of space to slow the earth down, so its in a cycle that will go on and on. It may end some day if something massive hits us, or when the sun expands at the end of its life.

Answer 3

There is alot of buzz going around saying its 2012, so get your kicks in now.

Answer 4

if your asking if earth ever stops rotating then that would be a no

Answer 5

Scientist's are trying to figure it out which is ok but only god knows when this earth will be over becuz he was the creator of this earth.

Answer 6

No. Nor has it ever rotated at a constant speed. The rotation of the earth is gradually slowing down.

Answer 7

yes the Earth is always spinning
