Detailed Solution

The motion of the earth about its axis is known as rotational motion.
The earth is part of a planetary system with the sun at its centre and eight planets that revolve around it in separate fixed orbits. The motion of planets around the sun is referred to as revolution. One revolution is when the earth completes one complete cycle around the sun.
In addition to revolving around the sun, the earth spins on its axis.
