Period of rotation on its axis: 23 hours 56 minutes
Period of revolution around the sun: 365.25 days
It is called synchronous rotation when the rotation and orbit take the same amount of time.
because of the sun
The Moon always keeps the same side facing Earth so its rotation period is the same as its period of revolution around the Earth. These periods are both about 27.3 Earth days.
They are the same. The Moon rotates once for each revolution around the Earth.
because of the sun
because of the sun
The rotation periodof Earth is about23 hours and 56minutes. The revolution period of Earth around the Sun is approximately 365.25 days.
Their farther awat from the sun
no they are not
If earth surrounds itself it is known as rotation if earth surrounds the sun then it is known as revolution
It is so much greater because the planets are made out of gas and gas are inside a wind storm or should i say a wind cycle and that is my answer.
Rotation . . . . . the "Day" Revolution . . . . the "Year"
