Does the earth revolve clockwise or counterclockwise around the sun?

Question

Tell me your "Proof"

(This is not as simple a question as you may think)

Answer 1

"Clockwise" and "Counter-Clockwise" is a matter of perspective, there is no absolute way of looking at it, it is all dependent upon the observer's frame of reference.
There is no absolute coordinate system in the universe, all measurements must be taking within a given reference frame and are thus relative to the conditions in the reference frame.
There is no one answer to your question.

Answer 2

The Earth rotates from west to east. The earth revolves around the sun in the same direction.

If you are above the North Pole looking down at the Earth, it seems to move in a counterclockwise direction, so it's orbit would also be counterclockwise.

However, if you are above the South Pole looking down, everything changes to clockwise.

Answer 3

We call it counter clockwise, because thats the direction it revolves using our most common references (ie, North pole is the up side)

In reality, neither are true. The universe does not have a certain side that is up and another that is down. The two views that would be perpendicular to the earths plane are both acceptable ways to look at it - the one on the North Pole side would show CC, and the one from the South pole side would show C.

Answer 4

- The earth rotates approximately itself - sunlight rises interior the east and instruments interior the west....that's a trademark of clockwise while you're status on the south and counter clockwise while you're status on the north pole - The sunlight is table sure in relation of the earth and earth revolves around the sunlight, The earth revolves around interior an identical direction which the it rotates around itself in (only relies upon the place you're looking from)

Answer 5

departing from the theory that all matter in our solar system rotated in the same sense when it was nothing but gas, all revolutions and rotations in our solar system should still be the same: a.k.a. conservation of angular momentum. Since the earth rotates counter-clockwise around its axis, its revolution around the sun is equally well counter-clockwise. This also holds for other planets. I vaguely remember there's an odd exception, hence the belief it is a body "caught" from another solar system.

Answer 6

it depends on which side of the horizontal plane (in which the orbit of the earth is) you are. You may even see the earth going on a curved path and not at all revolving if you are also in the same horizontal plane in which the earth is revolving the sun.

Answer 7

There is no definite answer. Clockwise and Counter-clockwise is based on perspective, there is no exact way to look at it.

Answer 8

in our general sense earth revolves counter clockwise but then again you must think, there is no gravity in space so there is no up or down neither side to side.
we could be upside down but sense our earth has gravity we see up as above our heads or something like that.

Answer 9

It depends on where you are looking from. Looking down on our North Pole it is rotating counter clockwise.

Answer 10

The question is meaningless without a reference point.
