Rotation
longitudinal axis: An axis along the lengthwise direction of the figure or body, usually passing through its center of gravity.
It's longitudinal axis
Latitude and longitude are two of the most important things map readers and sailors must understand. To determine longitudinal axis one must look at the center of the object and imagine a line coming straight through it.
The axis just defines their rotation. It is relative to spin, so if a body does not spin, it has no axis. Kind of an imaginary line, like the equator. It is used for reference. Also an object that is not round and symmetrical and has a length and a width can also be referenced by these dimensions. The Longitudinal axis is usually an axis through the longest dimension of the body.

Rotation
Rotation is the movement around a longitudinal axis.
yes
The longitudinal axis of an airplane is an imaginary line running lengthwise from nose to tail. Movement around the longitudinal axis is referred to as "roll" and is controlled by the ailerons. Movement about the longitudinal axis results in a banked attitude of the aircraft (where one wing is higher than the other) and, combined with rudder input causes the aircraft to turn.
Roll is the movement of the aircraft around it's longitudinal axis, this is a line from the nose to the tail.

rotation!
In a beam or length of material, we generally consider the longitudinal axis as the major axis for bending. But torsion will bend the material from the vertical, will twist it around that longitudinal axis. And lateral forces will bend the material across it axis of latitude.
The transverse plane is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
