, Question 1.2: Effects of the earth’s movement
Question 1.2.1
The earth rotates on its own axis from the north pole to the south pole, the rotation’s
direction is from the west towards the east. Earth rotates 360° on its own axis in 24
hours.
• The rotation of the earth is responsible for:
o Day and night. The direction of the earth is why the sun “rises”
(appears) in the east and moves across the sky and “sets” (disappears)
in the west. The earth’s rotation is counter clockwise (Eastward
direction) and causes the east-to-west movement of the sun (zone of
daylight) and moon (zone of darkness), causing the phenomenon we
call “Day & Night”. (Peterson et al, 2017:67)
