- Well, in geography or science, rotation is used to define the time period when the Earth rotates around (goes around) its imaginary axis.
- The Earth takes about 24 hours (1 day) to complete 1 rotation.
- This rotation of the Earth causes the change in day & night.
- The Earth moves in a retrograde rotation (meaning, it moves in a clockwise manner).
- Rotation also causes deflection in ocean currents & air currents.
