The moon revolves around the Earth the same way the Earth revolves around the Sun, and for the same reason; gravity pulls them into orbit. However, the moon has its effects on the Earth, too; it has its own field of gravity, which stretches the Earth into a slight ovular shape by pulling the water, causing what we know as tides.

How does the Moon's rotation physically affect the Earth?

The moon's rotation has no affect on the earth because the moon always faces its "near" side toward the earth. In the far distant past, the effect of the earth's presence slowed the moon's rotation until the present state was reached. The moon likewise slows the earth's rotation, but only by a tiny bit each century because the moon is so much smaller than the earth.
