If the Earth did not rotate on its axis relative to the background stars, then one day would last a year. We would get 6 months of night time, then six months of daytime - which would cause havoc with the climate. The planet would be inhabitable as the night side would cool down too much and the day side would heat up too much. The day/night cycle would last a year, since the earth would still revolve around the sun once in that time to give us one long day.
If the moon did not rotate around Earth, it would likely drift away from our planet due to gravitational forces. This rotation is what keeps the moon in a stable orbit around Earth. Without it, the moon's position relative to Earth would change, potentially leading to significant disruptions in our planet's tides and climate.
If daylight saving time did not occur, the time would be the same as standard time (without the one-hour forward adjustment in spring). So, if it is currently 2:00 PM with daylight saving time, it would be 1:00 PM without daylight saving time.

If the Earth did not rotate, global winds would follow a north-south path from the poles to the equator, due to the temperature difference between the poles and the equator. This wind pattern would be known as the Hadley cell circulation.
Once an object, any object, such as the Earth, is set in motion to rotate in a particular direction, it will always continue to rotate in that direction. For the Earth to rotate in another direction would take an enormous, cataclysmic force that would have to be created by a gigantic object colliding with it, or at least coming very close to it.

No, without Earth's rotation, there would be no day and night cycle. One side of the planet would always face the Sun, experiencing constant daylight, while the other side would be in perpetual darkness.
Half of the earth's surface, and all the people on it, would have 72 hours of continuous, sun-up daylight, whilethe other half of the earth's surface, and all the people and plants on it, would have 72 hours of continuous,sun-down darkness.
it would still appear to rotate

Rotation. It takes 24 hours to rotate fully one time. The side facing the sun is in daylight, the side facing away is in night. An interesting fact is that in order for us to experience 365 days in a year, the Earth has to rotate 366 times as it revolves around the sun in that year.
The earth can rotate on its axis.
because a square or a triangle would not rotate properly
