The axis of a planet is the imaginary pole of a planet in which it rotates. Say for example you have a globe. It is tilted slightly on an angle. That is the axis. The orbit is the place in which a body revolves around another, like all the planets to the sun, or Luna to Earth, etc.

FranAn axis is an imaginary line that an object rotates around, like the Earth's axis that runs from the North Pole to the South Pole. An orbit is the path an object takes as it revolves around another object, like the Earth's orbit around the Sun. In summary, an axis is the rotation point while an orbit is the path of movement around another object.

What is the difference between the orbit and axis?
The orbit is the path an object takes as it moves around another object in space, such as a planet orbiting a star. The axis, on the other hand, is an imaginary straight line around which an object rotates or spins, like the Earth spinning on its axis.
What is the difference between the rotation axis and the axis And the equator?
rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun
How many degrees is the axis of the earth tilted to in orb?
23.5 degrees. That's the angle between the axis of the Earth and a line that is perpendicular to the plane of Earth's orbit around the Sun.

What is the difference between the rotation rotation axis and the equated?
