The term "rotate" is synonymous with aviation itself. Every time a plane takes off, a plane "rotates". Rotate is the term used when the aircraft pitches up, and lifts off. So yes, an airplane can rotate.
An airplane has two flaps that rotate upward and downward, so when an airplane tilts it's flaps downward, the wind pushes against it and causes it to liftoff.
They rotate and can be braked, just like auto wheels. Nose wheels can be steered.
This is to allow the airplane to rotate when it is taking off. (Rotating is when the pilot pulls back, raises the nose of the aircraft, and the aircraft rises into the air). If the aircraft did not have this raised tail-end, a "tail-strike" would happen, which damages the aircraft.
If you mean like an airplane without wings, there's air resistance, friction between the wheels and the ground, and the axle on which the wheels rotate.
It's rotate!
The airplane in the movie Airplane is a Boeing 707
They don't actually defy gravity. Rather, an airplane uses its wings to 'glide' amongst the air currents. It's a matter of Action=-Reaction. Because of the shape of the wings, most of the air will move under the wings, which causes the air density to heighten and the airplane will be pushed upwards. An airplane can rotate its wings, so it can choose whether or not it wants to go upwards or downwards. Apologies for my bad English, it's not my first language.

The Sun does rotate.
Whirl velocity of a turbine is determined by how fast the turbine can turn when it is moving. This is a factor considered with airplane manufacturing. Whirl velocity is the number of times in a second that a turbine can rotate, moving at a given speed.

The front of an airplane is called nose of the airplane.
