what is the meaning of the earth and how long does it take to spin?

Answer 1

The Earth is our planet.

The Earth spins (rotates) on its axis.

It takes the Earth 24 hours to make one complete rotation. That causes day and night.

The Earth revolves around the Sun (our star).

It takes 365 days to make one complete revolution. That is one year. (It actually takes the Earth 365 days plus 6 hours to make one complete trip around the sun.)

The Earth's axis is tilted. That causes changing seasons and unequal day and night.

The Earth rotates from west to east.

The Earth is made up of over 70% water.

The Earth is the 3rd planet from the sun.

When the sun is above our heads, it is noon.

The sun seems to rise in the East and set in the West.

The moon is the Earth's satellite.

The moon rotates on its axis, too, while it orbits the Earth.

It takes the moon about 28 days to rotate once on its axis.

It takes the moon about 28 days to revolve around the Earth (one month). That is why we always see the same side of the moon.

Answer 2

Well, the Earth takes about 24 hours to spin around one time.
Conveniently for us, it does this every day so that our clocks are always right on time.

The meaning of Earth was uncovered in the pyramids in anchient Egypt around 1942 - 1943. I forget the exact date that the carved tablets were found in the Valley of The Kings.
Anyhow, so you can rest easy at night, the Meaning of the Earth is explained on Tablet Three. There the makeup of the Earth, and the Realm of the Gods is clearly explained and illustrated with many colorful drawings which the early Egyptians were noted for producing. The authenticity of these early tablets is beyond question and they now reside in the Natural Science Museum in Paris, France. Possibly you can visit Paris and see them for yourself one day.

Answer 3

The earth is the name of the third rock from the sun, and it spins on its axis once every 24 hours.

Answer 4

"Earth" is another word for "dirt". It takes 23 hours 56 minutes and 4.091 seconds to spin around once. Add the revolution around the sun, and you get 24 hours.

Answer 5

Definition: Third planet from the sun in the Milky Way galaxy; only planet known to harbor life in that solar system.

It takes 23 hours and 56 minutes for the Earth to complete one rotation (1 day), and 365.25 days to revolve around the sun once (1 year).

Answer 6

The earth is the big rock under your feet. It takes 24 hours to spin once on its axis.

Answer 7

Gosh I hope you are very young.

A day is the time the Earth takes to rotate once. That is what a day is. That is why the sun disappears for half a day.

If you're at school, I have to say they are not doing a good job with you.

if you are not at school yet, I understand, but these are things your parents should be telling you before your 3rd birthday.

Answer 9

The earth has no intrinsic meaning. It takes exaclty one earth day to spin. Earth is approx 8,000 miles in dia and so approx 24,000 miles in diameter, therefore it spins at about 1,000 miles per hour.

Answer 10

I suggest you look up the word MEAN. The Earth does`nt MEAN anything.
