Detailed explanation-1: -The differences between rotation and revolution of the Earth are as follows: Rotation Revolution-Rotation is the movement of the Earth on its axis.-Revolution is the movement of the Earth around the Sun.-Rotation takes around 24 hours.
Detailed explanation-2: -Rotation and Revolution "Rotation” refers to an object’s spinning motion about its own axis. “Revolution” refers the object’s orbital motion around another object. For example, Earth rotates on its own axis, producing the 24-hour day. Earth revolves about the Sun, producing the 365-day year.
Detailed explanation-3: -Rotation is the movement of the earth on its axis. The movement of the earth around the sun in a fixed path or orbit is called Revolution. The axis of the earth which is an imaginary line, makes an angle of 66½° with its orbital plane. The plane formed by the orbit is known as the orbital plane.
Detailed explanation-4: -Rotation refers to a circular motion around an axis, located within the body of the object. Revolution means a circular motion around an axis, located outside the object.
Detailed explanation-5: -Earth’s rotation or Earth’s spin is the rotation of planet Earth around its own axis, as well as changes in the orientation of the rotation axis in space. Earth rotates eastward, in prograde motion. As viewed from the northern polar star Polaris, Earth turns counterclockwise.
