revolution-is the revolving of an object around another object. rotation-is the spinning of an object on its axis. revolution and rotation are two different concepts but, are alike in some way. Rotation- Dominic
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.
its revolution period is 687 (Earth) days.And its rotation period is 24 hours, 39 minutes

Revolution and rotation
Rotation is spinning on an object's axis. Revolution is orbiting around an external axis.
Rotation - 59 days Revolution - 88 days Woot Swagg _
If earth surrounds itself it is known as rotation if earth surrounds the sun then it is known as revolution
Let's say Michael Jordan (Is he still playing ? I never know.) Let's say Michael Jordan is walking around the arena spinning a basketball on the end of his finger. 'Rotation' is what the ball is doing on the end of his finger. The Earth's period of rotation is 1 day. 'Revolution' is what the ball is doing around the arena at the same time. The Earth's period of revolution is 1 year.

Orbit is a curved or spherical path of celestial objects such as stars, moons, and planets. Other words meaning the same as orbit are revolution, rotation, course, track, circle, or trajectory.
