When you spin a top, it both rotates on its axis and revolves around a central point. Rotation refers to the spinning motion around its own axis, while revolution involves the circular movement around another point. So, the top does both when it spins.
The earth rotates on its axis. It revolves around the sun.
Uranus spins on its side, causing it to rotate like a top rather than spinning like most planets which rotate vertically. This unusual orientation is likely the result of a past collision with a large object.
the electrons revolve around the nucleus which is in the center of the atom, they revolve around it in 7 imaginary energy levels.

rotate - to revolve round a centre or axis
rotate, spin
When you spin a top that stays in one place, you are causing the top to rotate. Rotation refers to the spinning movement of the top around its own axis. Revolving would involve the top moving around a central point or orbiting, which is not what occurs when you spin a top in one place.
The word revolve (to go around, as in circles) can mean to turn, spin, or rotate. (*For planets, "revolve" is used to mean orbiting around a larger body, while "rotate" is used for the spin of the body itself.)
A synonym for "thought" is "idea" or "concept." A synonym for "revolve" is "rotate" or "spin."
turn, spin, swing, rotate, revolve, pivot,
In about 9 hours 50 minutes, Jupiter rotates once. I think that's what you meant. Astronomers use "rotate" not "revolve" for the spin of a planet.
There are many synonyms for the term rotate. A few synonyms for the word rotate would be swivel, spin, revolve, whirl, twist, and twirl. One can find lots of synonyms in a thesaurus.
To spin is to go around on its own axis. An example is a top. When you spin it, it goes around an imaginary line that passes through its center from top to bottom. To revolve is to go around any axis, whether its own or one outside it.
Actually,as the planet Revolve and Rotate the path is an orbit....^_^
Yes, an asteroid revolve the sun but not necessary rotate.
