Answer #1:

It takes just under 24 hours for the Earth to rotate once on its axis.

So in a two-week period (14 days)

it would be 14 complete rotations.

================================

Answer #2:

It takes 23.9344696 hours (rounded) for the Earth to rotate on its axis.

Two weeks means 14 days of 24 hours each. So in a period of two weeks,

the earth makes 14.038331 complete rotations. None of this has anything

to do with the number of days in a year.

To put it another way, the Earth completes 14 rotations about 55minutes 3seconds

before the two weeks has ended. That's why two weeks from today, any star

will reach the same place in the sky about an hour earlier than it gets there tonight.

Are there 11 times in a 12 our period in which the hands of a clock are opposite to each other I believe its 11 is the same case no matter what time you start Even if you started at 6 o clock?

There have to be 12 times this happens. The hour hand must complete 12 rotations in a 12-hour period. In each of those rotations it will be opposite the minute hand once.

About how many rotations does the earth complete in half a year?

One half of 365 is 182.5 or 182 days, 12 hours. That would seem logical but the earth does a complete rotation in 23h and 56min. As it travels around the sun, it has to rotate 4min extra to line up with the sun. As it turns out, the earth rotates 366.25 times in a year, 183.125 in half a year. Watch a star rise. the next night it will rise 4 min earlier.
