How is earth affected by movement (revolution)?
As Earth revolves around the Sun, it causes seasons and tides. When the Earth revolves, its axis points to (direct sunlight - Summer) and away (indirect sunlight - Winter) from the Sun. When sunlight hits the equator, we have Spring and Autumn. Earth's revolution also causes tides. When Sun ,Earth, and Moon are at the right angle, it causes Neap Tide, and when they are at the straight line, it causes Spring Tide.
