Name two
movements of the Earth. Explain each briefly
Answers
Answer:
There are two types of movements done by the Earth, They are Rotation and Revolution.
Rotation:-
The first primary motion of the earth is rotation. The earth rotates in a counterclockwise pattern, spinning on its axis once every 24 hours. The earth wobbles as it rotates, similar to a spinning top because the rotation of the earth occurs at a slight tilt. The earth is tilted at approximately 23.5 degrees. The tilt of Earth, as it rotates, creates different gravitational forces at the north and south poles.
Revolution:-
As the earth rotates on its axis, it also revolves in orbit around the sun. It takes exactly 365 days for Earth to make one full trip around the sun -- our definition of a year. The earth follows a circular path as it travels around the sun in a counterclockwise pattern. The path that the earth travels is therefore referred to as the plane of the elliptical.
