Is the moons orbit around earth absolutely straight with respect to earths orbit around the sun?
no
What else can I help you with?
What angle is Earth's axis tilted with respect to Earths orbit?
The season
What caused the phases of earths moon?
because of the location of the moon with respect to the sun and earth.
How does the earths orientation with respect to the sun change over the course of the year?
=What are the positions of the sun over a year???=
Is the earths orbit around the sun highly elliptical or almost circular?
The earths orbit around the sun is almost circular.
Is the earths orbits around the the sun highly elliptical or almost circular?
The earths orbit around the sun is almost circular.
What is the difference of the earths tilt and the earths axis?
The axis is the imaginary line running through the north and south poles that our planet revolves around. Earth's tilt refers to the fact that the planet does not sit perfectly straight in relation to the solar plane but rather tilts slightly to one side.
What is the earths travel around the sun?
around 365 days
Is planet Venus smaller or bigger?
... than Earth. Smaller. Venus' Mass is around 82% of Earths, while its diameter is a little smaller than Earths at around 95% of Earths diameter.
If an object is dropped from a given height does the object fall in a straight line towards the Earths core OR is it's path changed in any way by the influence of the rotation of the Earth?
It depends on your point of observation. It may appear to curve if you are stationary with respect to the surface of the Earth, though with respect to the travel of the object it will (with ever-so-slight perterbations by the sun, moon, etc.) fall directly toward the center of the Earth.
How does earths rotation influence the movement of global winds?
The influence of earths rotation is called the Coriolis effect. The coriolis effect causes wind to curve instead of going in a straight line.
Which of these causes global winds to appear to turn instead of blow straight across the earths surface?
Coriolis effect
What is the Earths path around the sun?
Earth travels in an ellipse around the sun
