An example of rotation?
rotation-planets on axis revolution-planets in orbit
What are the two movement of the planets?
orbit and rotation there is also a wobble or tilt that can fluctuate
How long do inner planets rotation and revolution around the sun?
PENIS
When a planet spins on its axis this is called?
rotation (as opposed to orbiting, which describes the earth's movements around the sun)
What is the period of a planets revolution can be used to calculate the planet?
The period of a planet's revolution is the time that it takes to complete one revolution around its axis of rotation relative to the background stars (also known as rotation period).

How does a planets period of rotation differ from its period of revolution?
they have different distances from the sun

Which two planets have the same rotation?
Earth and Mars are the planets in this solar system with similar rotation speed of approximately 24 hr.

Are the earths rotation and revolution periods the same?
no they are not
What is the difference between a planet's rotation and its revolution?
The planets rotate around their rotational axes and revolve around the sun.
What is the difference of a planets period of rotation and period of revolution?
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.
Are revolution and rotation the same?
No, they aren't the same. Revolution is the object moving in a circular motion. Rotation is when the object stays in one place and spins around.
