Rotation
RotationThe spinning of the Earth on its axis is known as 'the Earths rotation'Rotation.Rotating.rotation (as opposed to orbiting, which describes the earth's movements around the sun)
Because the Earth is spinning - at about 1000 miles per hour at the equator.
"Rotation" refers to an object's spinning motion about its own axis. "Revolution" refers the object's orbital motion around another object
Precession of the equinox.
Yes, the earth does spin around its axis. That's what causes the apparent movement of the sun and the stars. If your question was rather what spinning on its axis mean? Ever saw a sphere spinning? It means that.
yes

Precession. This is when the axis of rotation of a spinning object moves in a circular motion around another axis, causing a wobbling effect.
No, that is quite unrelated.

Rotating (spinning) on an axis is what Earth's rotation does in creating day and night.
True
That motion is known as "rotation".
A spinning motion like a top is called precession. This is when a spinning object's axis slowly rotates around a second axis due to external forces, such as gravity or friction. It causes the object to appear as though it is wobbling or moving in a circular pattern while spinning.
No, a spinning top is an example of periodic motion because it follows a repeated pattern or cycle as it spins around its axis.
Earth's Rotation
A spinning bicycle wheel has both kinetic energy due to its motion and rotational energy due to its spinning about its axis.
