Rotation

The act of turning, as a wheel or a solid body on its axis, as distinguished from the progressive motion of a revolving round another body or a distant point; thus, the daily turning of the earth on its axis is a rotation; its annual motion round the sun is a revolution.

Any return or succesion in a series.

Pertaining to, or resulting from, rotation; of the nature of, or characterized by, rotation; as, rotational velocity.

(mathematics) a transformation in which the coordinate axes are rotated by a fixed angle about the origin

a single complete turn (axial or orbital); "the plane made three rotations before it crashed"; "the revolution of the earth about the sun takes one year"
