Want this question answered?
it would still appear to rotate
the usual
The moon does rotate on its axis as the earth does. The earth rotates once in a day and the moon rotates once in a month ( for those who want to quibble, it's a little more than 27 days ). ADD---the moon rotate at the same speed of the earth, that why we always see the same side of the moon which give the impresion that the moon doesnt rotate but it does!
Full, large or whole. Maybe the question was meant to be...How would the Earth appear to an observer on the moon during a full moon?
because or the gravity of the moon and earth
it would still appear to rotate

If the moon didn't rotate around the Earth, it would be to dark to see at night and eclipses would not exist!
The Earth's rotation is not dependent on the Moon; without the Moon, the Earth would still rotate. However, the Moon's gravitation gradually slows down Earth's rotation, so without the Moon, it is possible that Earth would now be rotating faster.The Earth's rotation is not dependent on the Moon; without the Moon, the Earth would still rotate.

If the moon were to rotate twice during each revolution, the tides on the Earth would appear different. Also, the moon itself would show its far side rather than having the same side facing the planet all the time.
if there were no moon, there would be no light in the sky at night (earth would be a lot darker at night, earth's days would be longer (earth will rotate slower), and there will be no tides (the moon pulls the tides)

Moon takes 27 days to rotate earth for one cycle.

The moon changes shape as the planets (in this case the planet would be Earth) rotate around the sun.
