Rotation of a planet creates day and night. Revolutions are orbits (years).
Mercury turns relatively slowly, making one rotation (spin) about every 58.65 Earth days. At the same time, it orbits the Sun once every 88 Earth days. So there are almost exactly 1.5 Mercury rotations per revolution.
This is not a coincidence, but the result of gravitational interactions with the Sun, and gives Mercury 3 spins for every 2 orbits. Its farthest distance from the Sun is approximately 1.5 times farther than its closest approach.
The result, however, is an odd combination : with the planet rotating in the same direction as it orbits, the "apparent solar day" (sunrise to sunrise) is actually two of its years, about 176 days. An observer on the planet would see the Sun come up, move across the sky, then hover or even back up in its motion, and then finally set after 88 days of daylight. Some locations would see it rise, reverse back below the horizon, and then rise again. (The stars would still move across the sky at a slow but steady pace.)
59 Earth Days
~58 Earth days to rotate on its axis
~88 Earth days to revolve around the sun
I don't know how long it takes for it to make one revolution around the sun... but it takes 4222.6 hours to make one complete rotation on it's axis!!! Yo peace ya'll
Mercury is definitely not perfectly round. All of our photos of Mercury show that it's covered in craters which cause ridges to form all over the planet. This means that it's not perfectly round.
Round its own axis, one day; round the Sun, one year.

Jupiter takes 11.8618 years to make one revolution (orbit) round the Sun, and rotates once on its axis every 9.925 hours.
The Period of revolution decribes the time taken for an object to orbit another or the orbital period. For the Gas giant planets, this is the closest of the four - Jupiter. the closer a planet is to the sun (or any orbiting object is to another), the shorter the period of revolution. Jupiters period of revolution about the sun is 11 years and 314 days. The rotation period is the time it takes a planet to spin once on its axis, rotating about its axis. This has no relationship to the planet to sun distance, although again it is Jupiter at 9h 55 mins to make one turn. This is the quickest out of all eight planets.
Mercury - its the closest to sun so takes it less for one complete revolution
1. round the sun. 2. round its own axis.
it takes 88 days for mars to complete its revolution round the sun
Each complete revolution takes 30 minutes.
When the original line makes a complete revolution, the formed angle is called a perigon, or round angle.
Mercury's solar day is about 176 Earth days. That's the time taken by the Sun to complete one apparent trip round the sky.
round revolution basically means the revolution related to potato
No. It takes about 27.3 days for one revolution around the Earth, and the Earthand moon together take about 365 days for one revolution around the sun.
yes
it takes you 30 minuites to go all the way round
The Moon is dragged along by the Earth so it goes round the Sun in the same time as us.
There are 8 planets, they complete revolutions round the Sun and rotations on their own axes, all with different time periods. These planets complete one rotation in less than one Earth day: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. (Mars takes about 24.6 hours.)
