The period of a planet's revolution is the time that it takes to complete one revolution around its axis of rotation relative to the background stars (also known as rotation period).
The revolution of a planet refers to the entire elliptical "race-track" path that it travels around the sun. Within our solar system, the time for the planets to complete one full revolution ranges from 88 Earth-days to 248 Earth-years. The time it takes for one of the Earth's revolutions around the sun is 1 year.
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.
Rotation of a planet means the overall time of day and night, time for rotate on its own axis. In our earth 12 hours for night and 12 hour for day, total 24 hours. In Venus it takes 117 earth days, as a matter of fact it takes 225 earth days to complete its revolution. It is depends upon gravity. Revolution is time for round round the sun. 365 days and 6 hours in earth is called a year, that means it completed one revolution. The 6 hours is counted 24 hours that means 1 day in 4 years called a leap year. That one day is added to February as 29 days.
No planet has a revolution and rotation that takes 27 days. The Moon rotates once every 27 days and revolves around the Earth once every 27 days.

The rotation of a planet refers to the planet spinning like a top; a "revolution" is the time required for the planet's orbit around the Sun.
A planet's revolution is its orbit around the sun. A planet's rotation is its movement about its axis. For example, the Earth's revolution around the sun takes 365.26 days, and its period of rotation is 24 hours.
No, the planet with the shortest revolution does not necessarily have the shortest rotation. Revolution refers to the time it takes for a planet to complete one orbit around the sun, while rotation refers to the time it takes for a planet to complete one full spin on its axis. These two periods can be different for each planet.

the earths rotation around the sun is 365 days . hope this helps (:
they are both about circular motions but rotation is on an axis and revolving isn't. also revolution is usually revolving around another object.
All planets in our solar system vary in the time it takes them to complete a revolution. This is due to their differing distances from the sun. As far as rotation goes, the time varies from nine hours and fifty minutes for Jupiter to 244 days for Venus to make a like rotation.
It is a process when the planet is formed, and the rotation/revolution of the planet around the sun.
