Rotation versus Revolution
• Rotation is the turning of a body about
an axis.
– The earth rotates once every 24 hours.
• Revolution is the motion of one body
around another.
– The earth revolves around the sun once
every 364 ¼ days.

What is Insolation?
Insolation is the amount of radiation per area
that reaches the earths surface. The more direct
the suns rays hit the surface, the greater the
amount of surface heating.

Why Does the Length of Day on
Earth Change?
• The tilt of the Earth’s axis, and the
rotation and revolution of the Earth
is responsible for the changes in the
length of day and night.

Why Do We Have Seasons?
• The tilt of the Earth’s axis and the
revolution around the Sun cause the
Earth to have seasons.

Why Does The Moon Have Phases?
• Phases of the moon are determined by:
– The relative positions of the earth, moon and sun.
• Revolution of moon around the earth.
– Your position on the earth.

What is a Solar Eclipse?
• A Solar Eclipse is when the Sun is
blocked from view by the moon.
– The moons orbital path places it in
between the earth and the sun.

What is a Lunar Eclipse?
• A Lunar eclipse is when the moon is
blocked by the shadow of the earth.
– The moon’s orbital path takes it into
the shadow of the earth.
