To turn on an axis. E.g. Jupiter rotates once every 9.9 hours. This car's engine can run at 5000 rotations per minute.

Be careful! Rotate and revolve are similar words but not identical. Both words can refer to a body that spins around on itself, along an axis that passes through the body. Revolve also refers to the motion of one body around another another: the Earth revolves (but NOT "rotates") around the sun every 365.23 days.
