i love this question. i may only be a 7th grader but i learned about them this year. revolution is when the earth is orbiting the sun and this takes a full year to do. and rotation is when the earth is rotating on its axis which takes 24 hours to do and this causes weather. it also causes the Coriolis effect which causes wind to move in a curved path. that's where cold and warm fronts come from.
What else can I help you with?
How many differences between rotation and revolution?
Rotation is the spinning of an object on its axis, while revolution is the movement of an object around another object or point. The key difference is the axis of rotation: rotation occurs on an internal axis within the object itself, while revolution occurs around an external axis outside the object.
What are the similarities between rotation and revolution?
well the difference is rotation is around an axis in the center of a body. revolution is the movement of a body around an axis outside of the body ( earth is the body then the sun is the axis.
What is the difference in earth -sun relationship between revalution and rotation?
Some people like to distinguish between the two words, with revolution meaning rotation about the planet's own axis (e.g. in 24 hours), and rotation taking place around the Sun (in 365¼ days).
What is the difference between a planet's period of rotation and period of revolution?
All planets in our solar system vary in the time it takes them to complete a revolution. This is due to their differing distances from the sun. As far as rotation goes, the time varies from nine hours and fifty minutes for Jupiter to 244 days for Venus to make a like rotation.
Compare the period of revolution between mercury and plutowhat is the ratio between their period of rotation and why?
Mercury's period of revolution around the sun is about 88 Earth days, while Pluto's period is approximately 248 Earth years. The ratio between their periods of revolution is about 1:28. This difference is due to the much larger distance Pluto is from the sun compared to Mercury, causing it to take much longer to complete one orbit.
What is the differnce between rotation and revolution?
Rotation is a body spinning on it's own axis and revolution is the body revolving around an external axis.
What is the difference between the rotation and a revolution of a planet?
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.

What is the difference between planets period of rotation and period of revolution?
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.
What is the difference between rotation and revolution with regard to the solar system?
Revolution is the time a planet takes to revolve around itself. Rotation is the time a planet takes to orbit the Sun.

What is the difference between a planet's rotation and its revolution?
The planets rotate around their rotational axes and revolve around the sun.
What is the difference between period of revolution and rotation?
period rotation: 1 rotation of the earth(1 day) period revolution: 1 year around the sun
What is the difference of a planets period of rotation and period of revolution?
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.
