Answer:
This is a false statement. So it is F
Explanation: The axis of the earth is an imaginary line. It makes an angle 66 1/2 degree with its orbital plane. So the earth is tilting with orbital plane, not in parallel position. The plane formed by the orbit is known as the orbital plane. Due to this tilting position the poles have 6 months day and 6 months night.
Answer: False
Explanation:
The axis of rotation of earth is not parallel to its orbit. It is slightly tilted. It moves or rotates in the eastward side in a prograde motion.
When the earth is viewed from the north pole star Polaris then it turns Counterclockwise.
It rotates in 24 hours with respect to the sun but with respect to other planets it is a bit less. The rotation of the earth is slowing with time which states that the modern days are longer 1,7 milliseconds per century.
