Sunrise, sunset and noon are all related to the earth rotating on its axis. It constantly shows a new face to the sun. Only very recently were agreed upon time zones instituted. Mainly to prevent train crashes. The seasons are caused by a combination of the Earths tilt and how the suns rays strike the Earth in different times in its' orbit around the sun.
Years are defined as the amount of time it takes to go all the way around our sun.
The motion in which Mars appears to reverse its normal direction of motion in the sky is called retrograde motion. This phenomenon occurs when Earth, which moves faster in its orbit, overtakes Mars and creates the illusion that Mars is moving backwards in the sky for a brief period of time.
The Earth spins on its axis, completing one full rotation approximately every 24 hours. This spinning motion causes day and night and gives us our perception of the passage of time.
If Earth did not have a motion of revolution around the sun, the seasons as we know them would not exist, leading to a more stable climate globally. Additionally, without this motion, there would be no concept of a year as we measure it, impacting how we structure our calendars and understand time.

the earth spins once on its axis during the time we call a day

Motion can be depicted using vector diagrams, motion graphs, and equations of motion. These tools help to illustrate the direction and magnitude of an object's motion over time.
in the use of the chronometer. chronometer is the based time on earth and it is the greenwich time. greenwich time is the time at the prime meridian.......
We don't feel the Earth moving and rotating because its motion is constant and we are moving along with it at the same speed. Our bodies have adapted to this motion over time, so we don't perceive it as movement.
An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. Motion is a relative quantity and is expressed in respect to the position of another object. Example: both a car and the Earth are moving (earth is revolving around the sun) but if we express the motion of the car in respect to the Earth, we say the car is moving relative to the Earth. At the same time the earth is moving relative to the sun.
Some questions about motion that can help us understand the concept better include: How does an object's speed and direction change over time? What factors affect an object's acceleration? How do forces like friction and gravity impact an object's motion? What is the relationship between distance, time, and speed in motion? How can we use equations like velocity distance/time to analyze and predict motion?

To create a motion diagram, you need values such as the position of the object at different points in time, the direction of motion, the velocity of the object, and the time intervals between each position measurement. These values help to visually represent the motion of an object over time.
