Why do some asteroids tumble end over through space?
Just about any object in space will rotate - not just asteroids.
Does only the earth rotate on its axis?
No, all the planets, moons, asteroids and the sun do.
Does the asteroid belt rotate and at what speed does the asteroid belt rotate at?
The asteroids in the asteroid belt do move around the Sun, but they don't rotate as a single unit like a planet does. Each asteroid has its own orbital path and speed, so there isn't a specific speed at which the asteroid belt as a whole rotates.
What do comets and asteroids not have in common?
Comets are Comets and Asteroids are Asteroids
Why do some asteroids tumble end over end through space while other asteroids rotate around their axis?
Asteroids are practically all in orbits around the Sun, between the orbits of the planets. There is a large main belt between Mars and Jupiter, and more farther out past Neptune.Spin and wobble of asteroids is caused partly by impacts with other small bodies, and by the gravitational influence of the major planets. Likewise, one of the few things that will stop a spin once it starts would be tidal interaction with planets and moons. This also tends to establish orbital resonance with relatively nearby objects.

What things rotate around the sun?
planets, rocks, asteroids, comets, dust particles, ice particles..
Why do you think thst some asteroids tumble end over end through space while other asteriods rotate around their axis?
The tumbling motion of some asteroids is often the result of their irregular shape and uneven mass distribution, which can lead to unstable rotational dynamics. Additionally, collisions with other celestial bodies or gravitational interactions can alter their rotation patterns. In contrast, more spherical asteroids tend to rotate around their axis due to a more uniform distribution of mass, allowing for stable rotation. These differences highlight the diverse evolutionary histories and physical characteristics of asteroids in our solar system.

Rock like mass that revolves around the sun?
Asteroids are solid, rocklike masses known as minor planets or planetoids. Scientists believe that some asteroids are the remains of the solar system's formation. They orbit the sun between Mars and Jupiter. They rotate in the same direction as the planets. Most asteroids appear to have an irregular shape and are less than 1 kilometer in length.
What is the object in the solar system that rotates every 27 days?
The most obvious answer is the Moon, but there are probably several thousand asteroids and comets that rotate once each 27 days.
How does gravity act in the galaxy?
Various ways. Gravity of stars act on planets and cause them to rotate around them, as well as asteroids that get caught in gravity fields and fall to the plant's surface.

Does an asteroid belt have a source of energy?
Asteroid belts do not have a source of energy in the same way that planets or stars do. However, asteroids in the belt can gain energy from sunlight, which can cause them to rotate or move within the belt. Additionally, collisions between asteroids can also release energy.
How many asteroids crashed in Asia?
the asteroids crashed in Asia have 1000 asteroids
What is in an asteroids aptmosphere?
No asteroids have atmospheres.
