The Earth has two types of movements: rotation around its axis, which takes 24 hours and results in the cycle of day and night as different parts of the Earth face the sun, and rotation around the sun in its orbit. The Earth's axis is an imaginary line passing through the north and south poles. When a part of the Earth faces the sun it is daytime, and when a part faces away it is night.

1. Earths’ Rotations
• The Earthhas 2 types of Movements:
1) Rotation of Eartharound itself (its axis)
2)Rotationof Eartharound theSun
(The path in whichthe Earthrotates aroundthe Sunis called Orbit)

2. 1)Earth’s Rotation around Its Axis
Earth’s axis
is an imaginary line that
passes through the north
and the south pole
The part of the Earth away
from the Sun
Night
The part of the Earth facing
the Sun
Day Time

4. • The Earth takes 24 hours to rotate around its axis or itself .
• This rotation results in
Day and Night
Where the part of the earth facing the sun is “Day time” And the part away
from the sun is “Night”
