How many times can the Earth spin?


How many times can the Earth spin? How many times does Earth rotate on its axis in one year? Earth rotates (spins) 365.25 times in a year. It rotates once every twenty four hours, while also orbiting the sun once every 365.25 days. These two motions are happening at the same time.


What are the three possible things that could happen if the Earth would stop rotating?

If Earth stopped rotating, one half of it would be exposed to all the sunlight and could become extremely hot. The other half would not receive sunlight and could become extremely cold. Trees would not be able to survive due to extreme heat or lack of sunlight.
