Question

if you were to look down on the north pole from space, which direction would the earth appear to rotate?
a north to south
b clockwise
c south to north
d counterclockwise

Explanation:

The Earth rotates on its axis from west to east. When viewed from above the North Pole (looking down from space), this rotation appears counterclockwise. This is a fundamental concept in Earth's rotational dynamics in the field of Physics (a subfield of Natural Science). Options a and c describe linear directions, not rotational directions. Option b (clockwise) is the appearance when viewed from the South Pole. So the correct answer is d.

Answer:

d. Counterclockwise
