Nadaf, Bangalore, India Since the Earth has little forces that tend to slow the spin, the winds of the jet stream provide enough force against the atmosphere of the Earth that the Earth will continue to spin, thus creates the balance for the earth through gyroscopial force. Thiruman Archunan, Madurai, India One reason the earth will spin is that the gravity. Another reason that at the centre of the earth there is a huge ball of liquid iron.
It is always spinning and causes the earth to spin with it too. There no scientific explanation or theory that can be proven. Spinning, Hong Kog I have so many answers above for the question How the earth is rotating and How it rotates exactly on its axis and How it maintains its axis and its speed and How this could happen constantly when it is surrounded by vacuum. The answers given are Angular momentum , Moment of inertia and Interior dynamics , but I would ask this Question to everyone.
If u have right answers for all these QQ. Why still no body can simulate the similar kind of sample small budget planet or universe in a zero gravity or a vacuum Box. Lets even have a transparent Vacuum Box in the size of a bus or a car or a room.
Park Jae Woo, has clear answers behind this wonder world know, because he has discovered the most fundamental order consciousnesses eternally exiting is this wonder world.
Park is also the founder of Sujok Therapy and Onnuri Medicine worldwide. Dr Jain, Bhopal India it is simple,the earth rotates around it,s own axis because it is written Razaullah, peshawar pakistan I think that the earth rotate its own axis because of the repulsion between the earth and the sun Satya Prakash chandra, Bodhgaya India It is a natural effect. Natural things are created by GOD. Nobody in this world can give answer for this.
Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It is not so for Natural phenomena. So angular momentum remains constant. But no scientific explanation which have been observed. As to the angles of spin, in the course of time, the so-called configurations might have been reversed in certain planetary cases. What caused it, I don't know; But it is a new phase of physics we should research on.
The earth does not move. You can't feel it move or see it move. If it did move, we couldn't play baseball. If we threw up a rock, it would come down in the next county. If it did move, people at the north pole wouldn't be moving at all, while people at the equator would be spinning at 1, mph.
Yet no one has ever noticed the difference. Now make your excuses. According to space time theory earth and other bodies are in the elastic blanket they can embed it due to there mass.

This is an article from Curious Kids , a series for children. All questions are welcome — serious, weird or wacky! To answer this tricky question, we have to look back in time to when the Earth was born, 4.
We have to ask: why did the Earth start spinning in the first place? When our solar system formed out of a gas cloud, called a nebula, there was lots of dust and gas coming together due to the force of gravity.
The dust and gas was already moving around in a circle. As it all clumped together to form the Sun and planets, these new objects started to spin — and then spin faster. Read more: Curious Kids: Why do our ears pop? When you make a spinning object more compact, it spins faster. But why does it keep spinning? At the same time that the Earth spins on its axis, it also orbits, or revolves around the Sun. This movement is called revolution. A pendulum set in motion will not change its motion, and so the direction of its swinging should not change.
However, Foucault observed that his pendulum did seem to change direction. Since he knew that the pendulum could not change its motion, he concluded that the Earth, underneath the pendulum was moving.
