A rotation is an object spinning around its own axis once, such as one day on Earth.
A revolution is an object making a full transit around an external axis point, such as one year on Earth.
It is caused by the position of the moon that eventually changes because of its revolution and rotation.
The Earth rotates once every 24 hours on its axis (once per day) and revolves around the sun every 365 and 1/4 days (a year). When it is said the the earth rotates, it is meant that the earth is spinning on its axis, which is what causes day and night. However, a revolution is the earth going once around the sun, which is what causes the change of seasons and year. .
Without context, we have no way of knowing. The tangential speed of Earth's rotation is approximately 1,000 miles per hour at the equator. That said, an object, most likely a moon of a planet, could potentially revolve around its parent body at that speed.
The earths movement around the sun is called as revolution and the earth's motion within itself in its orbit is called as rotation. when the earth rotates its spinning in circles -around and around- and when it revolves its moving around the sun so rotation is when something spins in circles
Earth's moon is in synchronious rotation, meaning that it takes as long for the moon to rotate on it's axis as it does to make one revolution around Earth.
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
"Rotation" refers to an object's spinning motion about its own axis. "Revolution" refers the object's orbital motion around another object
they have different distances from the sun
because of the sun

Rotation . . . . . the "Day" Revolution . . . . the "Year"
There as different meanings for rotation and revolution. In this context a revolution can be the turning of body on its axis. In which case one revolution would be the same as one rotation. That is, there would be one rotation in one revolution. A revolution can also be the movement of a body in orbit around another body. For example, the Earth makes roughly 365 rotations during one revolution around the Sun.
Rotation is spinning on an object's axis. Revolution is orbiting around an external axis.
If earth surrounds itself it is known as rotation if earth surrounds the sun then it is known as revolution
Revolution
no. they all rotate and revolve at different speeds.
