0,000694rpm -> considering that the Earth rotates in 24 hours

Rotation Rate Of Earth

The Earth's rotation is the rotation of the solid earth around its own axis, which is called Earth's axis or rotation axis.
The average rotation period of the Earth is called "Sidereal day", the actual value "Length of day (abbrev. LOD). Many people do not know that LOD is not 24 hours, but 1/365 shorter than "1 day": its value is
23 h 56 m 4,10 s
and describes the rotation with respect to the cosmic background of the stars.
In contrast to this, the rotation with respect to the Sun is 24 hours, because we are revolving around the sun once per year. Per day the difference is
86 400 s / 365.25 = 236 seconds = 3 m 56 s

RPM = revolutions per minute
Since the earth makes one revolution in 23 hours 56 minutes (1436 minutes), that would make it rotate at .00069 RPM.

We ( Earth ) have a day side and a night side. People seem to forget this point. The sun is burning day light. We turn are back on it s day light. But, that leads to a different point. Or further a way from were is conversation was going. Earth turning rpm. Revolutions Per Minutes in inches, Please

It does one rotation per day.
