Question

Earth has four motions in its movement through space, rotation, revolution, processional, and solar motion, which two are of any importance in meteorology?

Answer 1

rotation and revolution

Step-by-step explanation:

out of the four motions the earth is subject to which are: rotation about its axis, revolution around the Sun, processional motion (a slow conical movement ) of the axis, and the solar motion (this refers to the

movement of the whole solar system with space), only two are of any

importance to meteorology as this two causes changes in weather and seasons. The first motion is rotation. Earth rotates on its axis

once every 24 hours. One-half of the Earth’s surface is

therefore facing the Sun at all times. The second motion of Earth is its revolution around the Sun. The revolution around the Sun and the earth tilt on its axis are responsible for changes in seasons. The Earth

makes one complete revolution around the Sun in

approximately 365 1/4 days.
