What rotates the sun in one day?

Do you mean, "What revolves around the sun in one day?" or do you mean, "What rotates, so that the sun appears to go completely around in one day?" If you mean the second one, the answer is the earth, since our day is defined by what appears as though the sun were making a complete revolution. If you mean the first, I know of nothing that revolves around the sun in one earth day. Mercury, the closest planet, takes about 88 days to do it. Earth takes about a year.

Does the sun fly across the sky during the day?

No, it only appears to. Relative to the Earth, the Sun is an almost-stationary object. The Earth - spinning on it's axis (through the North and South Poles) once a day - creates the illusion that the Sun is moving.
