The Earth is gradually slowing down - and will continue to do so throughout time. The length of a 'day' will progressively get longer.
The Earth's rotational speed is gradually slowing. There are a number of instances where time calculations have meant that we periodically add a 'leap second' to bring the actual time back into sync with the Earth's rotation.
That depends on where on Earth you are standing. At the poles, the Earth hardly spins at all, but as you travel towards the equator, the rotational speed picks up
It takes about 27.3 days for the Moon to spin once on its axis, which is the same amount of time it takes to complete one orbit around the Earth. This synchronous rotation causes the same side of the Moon to always face Earth.
It takes about 27.3 days for the moon to complete one full rotation on its axis, which is the same amount of time it takes to orbit the Earth. This is why we always see the same side of the moon from Earth.
It takes the earth to spin once on its axis 1 day i hope this helped :)
No. Tidal interactions with the moon are gradually slowing the rate of Earth's spin

Yes it does no matter what.
Once every 23h56m. So divide that into the Earth's equatorial circumferencw (look it up) and you have the fastest spinning speed. North and South of the equator the speed is slower, so that at the exact poles there is no spin at all.
Yes, the moon does spin on its axis as it orbits the Earth. This is why we always see the same side of the moon facing towards us.
yes because they are in the earth
The Earth spins at approximately 1,000 miles per hour at the equator. However, this speed decreases as you move towards the poles.
cuz +he moon spin and orbi+ happen at +he same speed. Tidal forces between earth and the moon have slowed the moon's rotation in a manner that causes the same side of the moon to always be facing earth.
Yes it does but at the same rate that the Earth spins. Therefore we on Earth always see the same face of it.
I think maybe there would be one or no seasons and/or on one part of the earth it would always be evening and at another it would always be morning.
Yes, 24/7, 'round the clock. It never stops.
