It all depends on where you're standing. On Earth, you can see only one side of the Moon, so you can say that the Moon does NOT rotate relative to Earth. BUT as you watch the Moon all month long, you can see that different parts of it are Sun-lit at different times, so you can also say that the Moon DOES rotate relative to the Sun. Earth definitely rotates with respect to both Moon and Sun. As for 'rotating with each other', no; they both REVOLVE together around the Sun, but they can never ROTATE together. Rotation is a ball spinning, and revolution is the ball's path around a larger, heavier ball. Since the Earth and Moon are two separate balls, each has its own rotation, but they can both share revolution around the Sun.
What else can I help you with?
When there is a full moon where are the Moon Sun and Earth relative to each other in space?
They are in a line with Earth in the middle.
What if the moon did not rotate around earth?
If the moon did not rotate around Earth, it would likely drift away from our planet due to gravitational forces. This rotation is what keeps the moon in a stable orbit around Earth. Without it, the moon's position relative to Earth would change, potentially leading to significant disruptions in our planet's tides and climate.
Does the moon and earth rotate?
Yes. Both rotate or "scientifically" orbit.The Moon orbits The Earth and The Earth orbits The Sun. While orbiting The Earth The Moon also turns on its axis. While orbiting The Sun The Earth also turns on its axis.
How long does it take or the moon to rotate around the earth?
27.3 Days
Does the earth and the moon exert a gravitational force on each other?
no they don't
Interactions with the sun moon and earth?
They rotate around each other, and work together to create tides.
How long it does take the moon to rotate?
Earth's moon does rotate on it's axis but it does it once each orbit of the Earth: every 27.3 days .
Is this the answer the moon unlike the earth does not rotate so you see the same side of the moon?
That isn't the answer. The reason why only one side of the moon is visible from the surface of the Earth is that the moon always keeps one side facing the Earth, which requires it to rotate once for each revolution of its orbit.
Does the moon rotate around the planets?
Yes. Each moon revolves around its own planet. Our Moon revolves around Earth.
Does the moon rotate on its axis twice each time it revolves around earth?
No. The moon rotates once for every orbit it makes around Earth.
How many days does moon takes to rotate earth?
Moon takes 27 days to rotate earth for one cycle.
How often does the moon rotate around the earth each day?
Zero times. It takes the Moon about 27.3 days to revolve just once around the Earth.
Why does the moon not rotate as does the earth?
The moon does rotate on its axis as the earth does. The earth rotates once in a day and the moon rotates once in a month ( for those who want to quibble, it's a little more than 27 days ). ADD---the moon rotate at the same speed of the earth, that why we always see the same side of the moon which give the impresion that the moon doesnt rotate but it does!
How would the moon appear to an observer on earth if the moon did not rotate?
it would still appear to rotate
How would the moon appear to an observe on earth if the moon did not rotate?
it would still appear to rotate
Does the earth and the moon revolve and rotate differently?
because or the gravity of the moon and earth
How many times does the moon rotate in the time it takes the moon to orbit the earth once?
Once . The Moon is tidally locked to the Earth, with one face of the moon always facing the Earth, and the other side never facing the Earth .
