Detailed explanation-1: -Earth revolves around the sun in 365 days, 5 hours, 59 minutes and 16 seconds.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Earth orbits around the sun every 365.25 days. It takes a little more than 365 days for the Earth to make a complete trip around the sun. Other planets have different orbital times. It takes only 87 days for Mercury to orbit the sun, but 12 years for Jupiter to make the journey.
Detailed explanation-3: -It takes Earth 23.934 hours to complete a rotation on its axis and 365.26 days to complete an orbit around the sun-our days and years on Earth are defined by these gyrations. Earth’s axis of rotation is tilted in relation to the ecliptic plane, an imaginary surface through the planet’s orbit around the sun.
