Earth's Movements and Their Effects

This video tutorial explains the two main movements of Earth: rotation and revolution. Earth's rotation on its axis results in day and night, completing a full turn in 24 hours. The revolution around the Sun, which takes 365 days and 6 hours, leads to the changing seasons. Earth's axial tilt of 23 degrees causes different hemispheres to experience opposite seasons. The video concludes with a brief mention of other celestial bodies orbiting the Sun, which will be covered in the next lesson.
