A Planet rotates on it axis.
(For Earth, the axis of rotation runs between the North and South Poles.)
Planets orbit the sun.
Planets are in orbit around the Sun.
Planets revolve around the sun.
Planets revolve on their axis of rotation.
So, the point is that it is sloppy to just say a planet rotates or revolves and one should specify the axis relative to which one is discussing rotation or revolution.
Orbits, are pretty clear though.
Objects such as moons or satellites that revolve around a planet are typically referred to as "natural satellites" or "moons." Artificial satellites placed in orbit around a planet are simply called "satellites."
A satellite is an object in orbit around a planet. Satellites can be natural, like moons, or artificial, like spacecrafts launched by humans for communication, weather monitoring, or scientific research purposes.orbited around a planet.
The only artificial satellite on Mars is the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which has been in orbit around the planet since 2006.
A moon or artificial object orbiting around a planet is called a satellite.
An object that moves around a planet is called a satellite. Satellites can be natural, like moons, or artificial, like those used for communication or scientific research.

A satellite revolves around a planet as it orbits it in space.

no its funny. moon is a natural satellite to revolve around earth
velocity of satellite.
The only artificial satellite on Mars is the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which has been in orbit around the planet since 2006.
A satellite revolves around a planet while it is revolving around around the sun (star). For example, moon (earth's natural satellite) revolves around earth while earth is revolving around the sun.
Satellites are natural or artificial bodies that revolve around larger bodies like planets. Except for Mercury and Venus, all of the planets have natural satellites call MOONS.
An artificial satellite is a man made object that orbits a planet or a moon.
A moon or artificial object orbiting around a planet is called a satellite.
A satellite is an object that orbits around a planet or body in space. There are artificial satellites and natural satellites. An artificial satellite is an object, like a space station, that has been set into orbit around a planet by humans. A natural satellite naturally finds its way into close orbit around a planet, like the moon naturally orbits the Earth.
An object that moves around a planet is called a satellite. Satellites can be natural, like moons, or artificial, like those used for communication or scientific research.
