No, they aren't the same. Revolution is the object moving in a circular motion. Rotation is when the object stays in one place and spins around.
The two kinds of motion a turning undergoes are rotation and revolution. Rotation refers to the turning on its axis, while revolution refers to the turning around another point or body. This dual motion creates the complex movement of the turning object.
The period of rotation is the time it takes for one full revolution. Since the object completes 15 revolutions in 40 seconds, the time for one revolution is obtained by dividing 40 seconds by 15, which gives a period of rotation of approximately 2.67 seconds per revolution.

earth moves through space two major ways:rotation and revolution -jerrold robinson-
The phenomenon of the moon always keeping the same face toward Earth is due to its synchronous rotation, which means that its rotation period is the same as its orbital period around Earth. This is caused by gravitational forces between the Earth and the moon, which have resulted in the moon's rotation becoming synchronized with its orbit.
no they are not
revolution-is the revolving of an object around another object. rotation-is the spinning of an object on its axis. revolution and rotation are two different concepts but, are alike in some way. Rotation- Dominic
It is called synchronous rotation when the rotation and orbit take the same amount of time.
When the moon's period of rotation is equal to its period of revolution, it results in synchronous rotation. This means the same side of the moon always faces the Earth.
The Moon always keeps the same side facing Earth so its rotation period is the same as its period of revolution around the Earth. These periods are both about 27.3 Earth days.
They are the same. The Moon rotates once for each revolution around the Earth.
The moon is tidally locked to the earth, so it's rotation and revolution are the same. About 29 days.
Cause us to always see the same "face" of the moon. This is called synchronous rotation.
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.

There as different meanings for rotation and revolution. In this context a revolution can be the turning of body on its axis. In which case one revolution would be the same as one rotation. That is, there would be one rotation in one revolution. A revolution can also be the movement of a body in orbit around another body. For example, the Earth makes roughly 365 rotations during one revolution around the Sun.
