The stars would be brighter points of light. Without the Earth's rotation, the Earth would not be moving enough to create the lines of light that ordinarily appear in an uncorrected stationary time exposure. Depending on the clarity of the sky, the entire image could be grayed by scattered light (light pollution).
It's called the 'Coriolis effect'. In the northern hemisphere, they rotate clockwise. South of the equator, they rotate counter-clockwise.
You can't rotate only the inner circle. You can rotate the entire Widdy Board by grabbing it on both sides and moving it in the direction you want to rotate it.
Yes. All planets rotate about an axis.
It rotates 90 degrees.
The word revolve (to go around, as in circles) can mean to turn, spin, or rotate. (*For planets, "revolve" is used to mean orbiting around a larger body, while "rotate" is used for the spin of the body itself.)

The photograph would record far more stars, nebulae, and galaxies than the naked eye could see. There are many thousands of such photographs to be seen on the web. Any camera capable of long exposures with an equatorial mount and a clock drive could create such a photograph. A clock drive, which turns the right ascension axis of the mount at the speed of a hour hand (hence the name), counteracts the rotation of the Earth.
Cassiopeia and the Big Dipper appear to rotate counterclockwise around the North Star in the northern hemisphere.
The vast majority of tornadoes in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise.
In the Northern Hemisphere, when facing North, towards the Pole Star (Polaris) Ursa Major and surrounding constellations, rotate counter-clockwise (right to left).Turn round to face south (with Polaris behind you) the stars rotate clockwise (left to right).
it would still appear to rotate

Most tornadoes in the northern hemisphere, at least 99%, rotate counterclockwise.
Yes. By definition a hurricane must rotate, however, they rotate in opposite directions. Storms in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise while those in the southern hemisphere rotate clockwise.
The northern star is called Polaris. It is located almost directly above the North Pole and remains relatively stationary while the other stars appear to rotate around it.
In the northern hemisphere, typhoons rotate counter-clockwise. In the southern they rotate clockwise. This is due to the force of the rotation of the Earth.
Tropical storms in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise while those in the Southern Hemisphere rotate clockwise.
