It is not an orbit, it is a ROTATE.
All planets turn on their axis. This is called the planet's rotation; one complete rotation is equal to one day on that planet.
A planet completing one full rotation on its axis is called a "day." This is what determines the length of a day on that planet.
On this planet, a day is longer than a year because the planet has a very slow rotation on its axis. This means it takes longer for the planet to complete one full rotation (a day) than it does to complete one orbit around its star (a year).
The time it takes for a planet to complete one full rotation on its axis, known as a "day," varies depending on the planet. Earth takes approximately 24 hours for one full rotation, while other planets like Mars or Jupiter have different rotation periods.
One complete turn is called a revolution and it turns 360 degrees from its starting position.

One complete turn of a planet's axis is known as a "single rotation." This rotation typically takes one day to complete on Earth, causing the cycle of day and night.
It's called - a "Day"
A planet's turn on its axis is known as rotation. This movement causes the planet to spin around an imaginary line called its axis, which runs from the North Pole to the South Pole. The duration of one complete rotation determines the length of a day on that planet. For example, Earth takes approximately 24 hours to complete one rotation.
Yes, a planet's spin one time on its axis is defined as that planet's day; 24 hours in the case of our Earth. In astronomical circles this is referred to as rotation, distinct from revolution which is applied to the time it takes for the planet to orbit around the Sun, which is that planet's year.
