is earth moves around sun?

Answer 1

Yes

Answer 2

the answer for this is yes because
Some visitors to the Gheens Science Hall & Rauch Planetarium at the University of Louisville in Kentucky recently asked why the planets go around the Sun. Most people take this fact for granted, but the answer involves many interesting ideas and important concepts. I'll touch on a few while you have me on the phone. First of all, saying the planets go around the Sun is just another way of saying the planets are in orbit around the Sun. A planet orbiting the Sun is like the moon or a NASA satellite orbiting Earth. Now why does a planet orbit the Sun and not the Sun orbit the planet? The lighter object orbits the heavier one, and the Sun is, by far, the heaviest object in the solar system. The Sun is 1000 times heavier than the largest planet, Jupiter (which also happens to be my favorite planet), and it is more than 300,000 times heavier than Earth (another planet I am very fond of). In the same way, the moon and satellites we launch orbit Earth because they are so much lighter than our planet.

Answer 3

You are 400 years behind the times. Well, actually there were ancient Greeks who knew the Earth orbited the sun, but the knowledge was quashed, in the Christian world at least, on the understanding that God would have made the Earth the center of the universe.

I have no problem with religion per se, but when it gets in the way of truth it can be evil.

Giordano Bruno was burned at the stake by the catholic inquisition for supporting Copernicus notion that the Earth goes around the sun.

The great Galilieo was silenced in the last years of his life by threats that he would be tortured by the inquisition if he did not relent in his quest to show the reality of the cosmos.

You should read about the quest for Parallax. It provides mathematical and observational proof that the planets are doing what they are doing, orbiting the sun, and that the stars are not fixed on a crystal sphere, as was believed based on no knowledge at all, but can be shown to change their position slightly in response to the Earth's passage from one side of the sun to the other over 6 months.

PS - please ignore Sangmos comments above about the sun going around the Earth relative to the Earth going around the sun. That is completely erroneous. I think the guy is confusing the rotation of the Earth on its axis (one day) in which the sun "appears" to circle the Earth daily along with everthing else in the sky.

Answer 4

Yes, Earth is moves around the sun.

Answer 5

In a sense, it does, although all motion is relative, so you can think of the Sun moving around the Earth if you wish. The conventional "truth" that the Earth moves around the Sun is really just a way of saying that the mathematical equations and laws of physics that describe the behaviour of the solar system are much simpler and more elegant if the Sun is assumed to be at the centre and the planets to orbit around it. Interestingly, Copernicus's sun-centred model of the solar system did not predict the positions of the planets significantly better than the old Ptolemaic Earth-centred model, it wasn't until Kepler had realised that the orbits of the planets are ellipses, not circles, that better predictions were possible.

Answer 6

Yes the Earth does move around the sun.
Despite the expense of living on Earth, all of us at least a year old, get a number of free trips round the sun.

Answer 7

The Moon travels around the Earth. It takes 28 days to go around this orbit.

The Earth moves around the Sun, it takes 365 days (one year) to go all the way around. As the Earth moves around the sun it is spinning. It takes 24 hours (one Day) to spin around on its axis ( the axis is just an imaginary line that goes through the middle of the Earth from the North pole to the South pole, take a look at a spinning globe in your classroom if you're not sure.)

Answer 8

Most people say yes, the Earth moves around the Sun.

But you could also say that the Sun moves around the Earth. But then, if you say that, and try to find the equations for the movement of the Sun, they are very complicated.

The equations for the Earth moving around the Sun are much easier. That's why we say that the Earth moves around the Sun.

Answer 9

Is that similar to, does the earth move around the Sun, if so ,Yes. Have a word with your teacher, to learn more.

Answer 10

As up to this point the theory that earth moves around the sun is true!

Answer 11

Yes, the earth orbits the sun (completes a whole revolution) every 365 days, also know as a Year.
