Is mercury the fastest moving planet around the sun but the slowest rotating around its axis?
Mercury is the fastest moving planet around the sun. It is second slowest to rotate about its axis, Venus being the slowest.
Astronomers find that light coming from point A at the edge of the sun has a slightly higher frequency than light from point B at the opposite side What do these measurements tell us about the sun's?
This observation indicates that the Sun is rotating about its axis, causing a Doppler shift in the light's frequency. The difference in frequency between points A and B is due to the Doppler effect, showing that different parts of the Sun are rotating at varying speeds.
Why is the earth always tilted while it revolves around the sun?
An object, once rotating, tends to maintain the direction of its rotational axis in space.
How does Earth rotating on its axis help keep the planter at proper temperatures for life?
If only 1 side of earth faces the Sun, then that part will stay
What is the axis tilt on Pluto?
The axis of Pluto is tilted at an angle of approximately 119.5 degrees in relation to its orbital plane around the Sun. This extreme tilt contributes to the significant variations in seasons experienced on Pluto as it orbits the Sun.
Does sun have a twin?
No the sun does not have a twin. It rotates on its own axis.No, the sun does not have a twin. It is on its own, rotating in its own axis.
The earth spins on its axis and what else?
In addition to rotating on its axis (spinning), our earth also revolves around the sun (orbits).
Is sunrise an optical illusion?
No, sunrise is not an optical illusion. It is the result of the Earth rotating on its axis, causing the sun to appear above the horizon as the Earth's location moves into the path of sunlight.
Do Mars and Mercury go around the Earth?
No, Mars and Mercury go around (orbit) the sun. The two planets appear to orbit Earth, but it's a result of the Earth rotating on its axis.
How does the earth spin and rotate?
no the earth spins on it's axis while rotating around the sun
How can you use sunspots to tell that the sun is rotating on its axis?
Sunspots can be used to determine the rotation period of the Sun because they appear to move across the Sun's surface as it rotates. By tracking the motion of sunspots over time, scientists can calculate the rotation period of the Sun. This information helps confirm that the Sun is indeed rotating on its axis.
Where is the sun when it is night?
The sun stays in the same place, because we are rotating on an axis the sun appears to move. When its night time where you are the sun is shining on a different part of the earth.
When the sun appears to be setting in the west what is actually happening?
This apparent movement of the Sun is the result, or reflection, of Earth's rotation around its axis.
Is the earth turning on it's axis and rotating around the sun at the same time?
Yes, at the same time.
Does the sun appears to move because of the turning of the milky way galaxy?
No, it is because of the Earth rotating on its axis.
Why does it look like the sun is moving across the sky from sunup to sundown?
It is because the earth is rotating on its axis
Is mercury the fastest moving planet around the sun but the slowest rotating around its axis?
Mercury is the fastest moving planet around the sun. It is second slowest to rotate about its axis, Venus being the slowest.
