It is gravity that makes the earth and other planets orbit the sun. That and the inertia of the planets themselves combine to set them in their orbits. The planets were moving balls of material when they were formed, and because nothing resisted them, they continued to move. Gravity kept them from excaping the sun, and their own energy of motion and the gravitational attraction of the sun combined to set the orbits.In easy words yes!
the orbit around the sun gives us our year, the rotation around our axis gives us night and day.
the answer below is incorrect.
That's how we get night n day and it orbits by gravity.
Objects with greater mass have greater gravitational pull. The sun is huge, so it has a huge gravitational force and pulls in objects around it. It just happens slowly. Every year we get closer and closer to the sun but it is a very minuscule amount.
Because of the sun's gravitational pull. A planet would not have any orbit at all without something to orbit around. Earth orbits the sun because the sun is so massive. The moon orbits the earth because earth's gravity is strong enough to hold the moon.
The Earth has two movements : rotation (on its own axis) and revolution (around the sun).
Celestial bodies attract each other and keep themselves a determined distance which may be
an elliptical revolution. All of these movements are called physical laws that keep the Universe
running like a gearing based machine. They attract each other in proportion to their masses.
That's why the Earth moves around the Sun along with all planets of the solar system.
The earth orbits around the sun because of the gravitational influence of the mass of the sun to the earth.In the Newtonian view,gravity is regarded as a force or a pull by the sun to the earth but in Einstein's concept, the curvature of space around the sun by its mass means that the earth simply "free-falls" around that path back to its starting point,thus gravity is simply the influence of the sun's mass to the space-time around it.
The pull of gravity makes the earth orbit the sun.
A body that finds itself near a star has three choices, depending on its speed
at the moment, and the direction in which it happens to be moving:
-- It has enough kinetic energy to completely escape the mutual gravitational
attraction between it and the star, and just keep going on its way.
-- It has the misfortune to be aimed exactly at the center of the star, or very close
to it. Its current path will take it directly into the star. Its days are numbered.
-- It doesn't have enough kinetic energy to escape the star, but it's not aimed
directly at the star. It and the star will be come gravitationally bound to each
other, and they'll dance in orbit around their mutual center of mass, for a long time.
Those are the choices. Wherever the Earth came from, and however it formed, it
didn't have enough energy to escape the sun, and it wasn't aimed directly at the
sun. Any other bodies that satisfied either of these two conditions are long gone ...
either sailed away through the galaxy, or added a tiny flicker to the sun when they
sank into it. The Earth is one of the few bodies that survived the encounter but
stayed here anyway, and that means in orbit, because that's the way gravity
works.
Well in space every planet falls around the sun by the force of gravity. The orbit is so large it takes the earth an entire year to fall once around the sun.
The earth revolves around the sun because the sun has enough gravity to obtain our solar system and our polar gravity system helps us revolve around the sun.

Earth revolves around the sun. That is why the constellations we see from Earth appear to change.
clearly, one is wrong.here is the answer: http://www.quran-miracle.info/Earth-Rotates.htm
I am not sure what you mean by "swimming". The movement of one object around a point outside it - in this case, the Earth around the Sun - is called "revolution". The movement of an object around an axis within the object is called "rotation". Earth does both. It revolves around the Sun with a period of one year, and it rotates around its own axis with a period of one day. Answer2: The earth revolves around the sun like a cork in a Ocean current. The current carries the earth around the sun. The Circulation Force is DelxcP where P is the earth's Momentum and c is the speed of light.
Angles the sun hits us at different angles
That the earth revolves around the sun, not that the sun revolves around the earth.
That the earth revolves around the sun, not that the sun revolves around the earth.
No. The moon revolves around Earth, and Earth revolves around the sun.
The Earth rotates on its axis, as it simultaneously revolves around the sun.
The moon revolves around the Earth and the Earth revolves around the sun. The moon does not revolve around the sun.
The bright object the Earth revolves around IS the Sun.
The moon revolves around the earth, and the earth revolves around the sun. The reason for this, simply, is gravity.
No, the earth revolves around the sun.
Nope, the Earth-Moon system revolves around the Sun.
There is no Sun - Moon system The Earth revolves around the Sun, the Moon revolves around the Earth. There is a Sun - Earth system and a Earth - Moon system.
The theory that the earth revolves around the sun is heliocentrism.
the earth revolves around the sun.
