That would depend on the speed. The Moon is near the Earth, so you can take the Earth-Sun distance, which is 150 million kilometers. At the speed of light, it takes 8m 20s. At a slower speed, obviously it will take longer. Use the formula distance = speed x time. Solving for time: time = distance / speed. Be sure to use compatible units. For example, if the distance in kilometers, and the speed in kilometers / second, then the time will be in seconds.
One way of measuring how long it takes the Moon to orbit the Earth is by measuring how long it takes for the moon to appear. This is done by measuring the length of the moon's phases. This can also be measured by timing how long it takes a radar beam traveling at the speed of light.
First off, it's not the stars that are moving (at least not appreciably), it's the Moon.
The apparent motion of the Moon relative to the fixed stars is just about 33 minutes (of arc) per hour. The Moon's angular diameter from Earth is approximately the same.
Both of these vary depending on exactly where the Moon is in its orbit, and when the Moon is furthest away (and therefore the smallest) it's also moving the slowest, so the two factors roughly cancel out, and it's fairly reasonable to say that the moon moves by about its own diameter every hour (again, relative to the fixed stars... relative to the horizon, it moves about 30 times further than that, but so do the stars near the Moon's orbit).
Therefore, if the Moon occults a star (that is, the star disappears behind the Moon's disc from our point of view), that star will reappear on the other side about an hour later if it goes behind the widest part of the moon, or in somewhat less time if it passes north or south of that line. For reasons that should be obvious if you've been paying attention this far, reporting a value in seconds would imply a wholly unjustified degree of precision (for any specific occultation, it is possible to calculate its length down to the second, but it also involves considerably more computation than I personally feel like doing ... if you really care, you could look it up in what's called a table of ephemera).

because earth is rotating around itself while revolving around the sun
Technically, there are entire galaxies that "orbit" around one another. There are super galaxies called "Giant Ellipticals" around which smaller galaxies move about. The problem is that it becomes a question of relativity, as in, what is the center of the universe (or is there even one?) or what is revolving what. There are some theories that speculate that the entire universe is rotating or "moving around itself".
No, it is not possible to stop the electrons from revolving around the nucleus unless they are stripped off from the nucleus.
The moon is caught in Earth's gravitational pull and the Earth spins on its axis and it is as though the moon is revolving around it
I hope u mean geocentric. Here the answer, long time ago they saw the stars move across the sky, so they concluded that everything is revolving around the earth. But they coudn't explain why some stars or planets move back wards. So its not acurate. But actual the earth rotating and revolving makes it look like the stars are moving. HOpe this helps =]
Earth itself is rotating on a axis and it's revolving around the sun at the same time.
no, it's the Earth that is constantly rotating around the Sun
rotation on axis and revolving around earth
because earth is rotating around itself while revolving around the sun

Prof. Fields class?))The Earth is constantly in motion, revolving around the Sun and rotating on its axis. For reflected motion, steal Searching.
1.Revolution (the earth and moon revolve around their common centre of mass) 2.Rotation. (the moon rotates around its own axis 3. The moon orbits the sun in company with the earth.
they are both about circular motions but rotation is on an axis and revolving isn't. also revolution is usually revolving around another object.
Rotating means to take 1 full spin while moving , wich takes 24 hrs. Revolving means to revolve around the sun in which takes 365 days.
Spinning means 'rotating'. Originally a word in the textile industry, now used in fishing and in bicycle racing. The words "rotating" and "revolving" are often used as synonyms, but (as seen in astronomical terms), rotating means spinning while revolving is the motion of one object or point around another.
An orbit.
