Measured in km/hour, the velocity at the Equator is about 40 000km per 24 hours. [you do the math.] At the poles, the velocity in km/hr approaches zero. But at all positions, it rotatesonce per day.
In the Northern Hemisphere, typhoons spin counterclockwise. In the Southern Hemisphere, they spin clockwise. This is due to the Coriolis effect, which is caused by the Earth's rotation.
Yes, the Earth's core spins within the planet.
No, it is highly unlikely that Earth will spin off its axis. The Earth's axial tilt is relatively stable, and any changes in its rotation are gradual and natural. Significant events would be required to cause such a dramatic shift.
A compass has a magnetized needle that can spin freely.
Cannot be determined with the values you give. A spin rate cannot be defined by a linear dimension, You need to specify the angular dimension and a time value. or the peripheral speed which could be a linear and a time value.
At the equator. The spin of the earth is fastest there.
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.
no light is the fastest on earth
what does earth spin on besides a inmaginary line? ============== Planet Earth rotates on its axis.
Yes, Earth does spin faster than Mercury.For more details, visit this NASA site:http:/www.nasa.gov/worldbook/mercury_worldbook.html
No, it takes 24 hours for the Earth to spin.
The fastest man on earth is the great Usain Bolt.
No!! peregrine falcon is the fastest animal on earth
Each spin of the earth is called a rotation of the earth on it's axis.
The rotation of the planet on its axis of spin. The spin is responsible for the day and the night.
The Earth spins on an axis.
The Bugatti veyron manufactured by volkswagon is the fastest car on earth.
