Did the Chilean Earthquake knock the Earth off it's axis?

No, the Chilean Earthquake did not knock the Earth off its axis. Earthquakes can cause localized changes in the Earth's rotation, but they do not have the capability to shift the entire axis of the Earth.


Has the Earth ever been off its axis?

No.


How many degrees off axis is the earth tilted?

The earth is tilted 23.5 degrees


Is it possible for earth to spin off its axis?

no it is not. the earth is straight up and down. so is the sun.


Will earth spin off its axis?

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.


Can humans survive on earth without the moon?

No, because the moon has something to do with the gravity and pull to the sun, it keeps earth in line, and if the earth moved one single degree off its axis or closer or fartehr from the sun, we ould freeze, or burn up, or fall off the face of the earth!

How far is earths magnetic axis tilted from its geographic axis?

Earth's magnetic axis is tilted at an angle of approximately 11 degrees from its geographic axis. This means that the magnetic north pole is not exactly aligned with the geographic north pole. The tilt causes compass needles to point slightly off from true north in certain locations.


What does earth spin on besides a inmaginary line?

first off it's not imaginary its an orbit another thing the earth spins on is it's axis


Are earths magnetic poles located on its axis?

No, Earth's magnetic poles are not located exactly on its geographical poles. The magnetic poles are located slightly off-axis and can shift over time due to changes in the Earth's magnetic field.


What is the reason your toy cars moved down the ramp?
