Question

How does earth’s revolution take place?

✓

Answer

Another type of movement is earth’s revolution around the sun.
This movement is called revolution.
The path followed by earth to make one revolution round the sun is called orbit of the Earth.
The Earth revolves round the sun in an elliptical orbit and hence takes about 365 days and 6 hours for completing one revolution.
In this way, we can say that earth has two kinds of motions: one is rotation (on its axis) and another is revolution (around the sun).
