Usage Examples English
  • The meridian is the plane that contains both the axis of the Earth's rotation and the observer.
  • The axis of the Earth's rotation is not perpendicular to the plane of its orbit around the Sun (which is parallel with the direction of sunlight), and so the length of the daytime period varies from one point on the planet to another.
  • The axis of the Earth's rotation tends, as the axis of a gyroscope, to maintain its orientation to inertial space.
  • Centripetal force causes the acceleration measured on the rotating surface of the Earth to differ from the acceleration that is measured for a free-falling body: the apparent acceleration in the rotating frame of reference is the total gravity vector minus a small vector toward the north-south axis of the Earth, corresponding to staying stationary in that frame of reference.
  • True north (also called geodetic north or geographic north) is the direction along Earth's surface towards the place where the imaginary rotational axis of the Earth intersects the surface of the Earth.

  • At the poles the support-point is located on the axis of the Earth so the support-point rotates but does not have a horizontal velocity component as it does at the equator (and a progressively less horizontal velocity component with increasing latitude).
  • The tube (beneath the stairs) was parallel to the polar axis of the Earth.
  • Once launched, orbits are normally located within relatively constant flat planes at a fixed angle to the axis of the Earth, and the Earth rotates within this orbit.
  • The observed angle between the figure axis of the Earth F and its angular momentum M is a few hundred milliarcseconds (mas).
  • Since the gyrocompass's north-seeking function depends on the rotation around the axis of the Earth that causes torque-induced gyroscopic precession, it will not orient itself correctly to true north if it is moved very fast in an east to west direction, thus negating the Earth's rotation.

  • The axis of the earth wobbles around slowly moving the observer and changing the observation of the event.
  • These parts are built on top of the base and above the basilica, which rotates on a pin to represent the axis of the Earth.
  • During early spring, the axis of the Earth is increasing its tilt relative to the Sun, and the length of daylight rapidly increases for the relevant hemisphere.
  • The graticule is formed by the lines of constant latitude and constant longitude, which are constructed with reference to the rotation axis of the Earth.
  • For a lunar eclipse, it defines whether the axis of the Earth's shadow passes north or south of the Moon; a positive value means south.
