The Earths sidereal rotation period is 23 hours and 56 seconds. = =
Earth rotates once every 24 hours. If you divide 8766.15 by 24, you get pretty close to the number of days in a year. __________ Not quite. 24 hours is the average synodic period of earth, not the rotational (sidereal) period. Earth rotates once every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds roughly. This turns out to be about 23.93 hours. The orbital period of earth is 8766.152784 hours roughly. So the earth rotates (sidereal) about 366.325 times in a year. See discussion if you doubt this result.
Jupiter rotates once on its axis every 10 hours. The planet makes once complete rotation around the Sun every 12 years.
The Earth rotates around its own axis in 24 hours. It rotates around the Sun in 365 days.
Mars rotates on its axis once every 24.6 hours, which is very similar to Earth's rotation period.
The Earth rotates 15 degrees every hour, so in six hours it will have rotated 90 degrees.

The earth rotates 360 degrees every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.100352 seconds.
Earth rotates (spins) on its axis close to every 24 hours, creating days and nights.
Mercury rotates once in its axis once every 58 days 15 hrs and 30 min. In terms of earth hours that's 1407.5 hrs.
the Earth makes 1 rotation every 24 hours the Earth makes 1 revolution every 8766 hours.
The Earth rotates around its own axis in 24 hours. It rotates around the Sun in 365 days.
