I am not sure what you mean by "swimming".
The movement of one object around a point outside it - in this case, the Earth around the Sun - is called "revolution".
The movement of an object around an axis within the object is called "rotation".
Earth does both. It revolves around the Sun with a period of one year, and it rotates around its own axis with a period of one day.
Answer2:
The earth revolves around the sun like a cork in a Ocean current. The current carries the earth around the sun. The Circulation Force is DelxcP where P is the earth's Momentum and c is the speed of light.

After how long you can go for walk after dinner?

What is the purpose for the planets to revolve around the sun if earth is known to be the only planet with living organisms on it?
every planet has a certain amount of days to reach a year. So just like earth, other planets would have to revolve around the earth. (this was an easy question to not already be answered)
How did the earth's moon became the moon?
Some four billion years ago a massive body, roughly the size of Mars, struck the nascent earth. The debris from this collision settled into orbit around the earth, like a ring. Within just a few thousand years it had coalesced into the moon.
How long does it take mars to rotate around the world?
Mars does not rotate around the Earth. It rotates around the Sun, just like all the other planets/
Does the earth rotate like the other planets?
Yes the Earth does rotate like the other planets (except for the distance of the rotation(assuming your talking about the rotation around the Sun); the wobble of the Earths axis compared to other planets; and the time it takes to rotate)
How long does the earth to turn around?
One day. You can imagine the Sun as staying roughly in the same place compared to the Earth (we can ignore the Earth moving around the sun for now) - what we see as the sun moving around the sky is actually the Earth turning on its axis. This is like being on a roundabout - as we rotate on the roundabout, a person standing on the ground looks like they rotate around us.
What are the similarities of Saturn and Earth?
Saturn and Earth are similar because they both:are formed at about the same time,rotate around the sun,rotate on their own axis,are a planet.
Do all planets self rotate like earth?
yes
Is the ozone layer stationary or does it rotate with the earth?
the second... it rotates with the earth, like the rest of the atmospere
How is the water in the swimming pool similar to earth's interior?
Pressure inside Earth increases much like pressure in the swimming pool increases.
What does rotate mean in solar system?
spin; turn around an imaginary axis of rotation, like the one that includes Earth's geographical north and south poles
How many years does mercury rotate?
It orbits the sun but does not rotate like Earth. One side is always hot and one is aways cold.
How does the moon rotate around earth?
The MOON rotates on its own axis. It is a very slow rotation compared to the Earth. It rotates on its own axis about every 28 days. It also revolves (Orbits) the Earth every 28/29 days. Consequently we only see approxiamtely 60% of the Moon's surface from Earth. It was only when spaceships were launchedto the Moon, that we saw the 'Far side of the Moon' for the first time in history. Like the Earth's orbital track about the Sun, the Moon's orbital track about the Earth is an ellipse. So sometimes it is nearer Earth and sometimes further away. The Earth lies at one of the foci (NOT the centre), of this orbit. Remember all astronomic bodies stars, moons, planets (Earth included), ROTATE on their own AXIS. They REVOLVE(Orbit) about other objects e.g. Suns.
Does earth revolves around the sun on its own orbit?
Yes all eight planets plus an additional billions of meteoroids and dust revolve around the sun; however, all planets like Earth have a set orbit and revolve around the sun. All planets also rotate on an axis.
How many stars does Uranus?
Uranus is a planet. It does not have any stars. Like Earth, it orbits around the Sun, which is a star. The Sun does not belong to any planet.
