Detailed explanation-1: -Earth revolves in orbit around the sun in 365 days, 6 hours, 9 minutes with reference to the stars, at a speed ranging from 29.29 to 30.29 km/s.
Detailed explanation-2: -Earth’s Revolution. In addition to rotating on its axis, the Earth also travels around the sun in a path called an orbit. The motion around the sun along its orbit is called a revolution. The amount of time it takes for a single trip around the sun is called a period of revolution.
Detailed explanation-3: -As the Earth orbits the Sun, the Earth is pulled by the gravitational forces of the Sun, Moon, and large planets in the solar system, primarily Jupiter and Saturn. Over long periods of time, the gravitational pull of other members of our solar system slowly change Earth’s spin, tilt, and orbit.
Detailed explanation-4: -Revolution means the movement of the Earth around the Sun in a fixed path or orbit. This movement causes seasonal variations in different parts of the Earth.
Detailed explanation-5: -A planet moves around the sun in a definite path due to the combined effect of forces of gravity and movements of the planet. The sun has a much higher gravitational force than a planet because of its greater mass. Kepler formulated three laws which are known as Kepler’s laws of planetary motion.
