T D, you're not helping

It doesn't feel like it, but the Earth spins at 65,000 miles an hour. If earth were to stop its orbital spin, we would all be flying through walls because of it. Lets hope that doesn't happen!

As fast as it wants
The earth spins at the same speed as the earth spins.
The question is
what is the rate at which a point will complete a revolution or how many revolutions will take place compared to the equator.

One spin per day.It is the same from euator to poles.Only the speed of rotation of a point at the equator differs from that of poles.

it would spin the same as the rest of the earth, roughly 1 revolution in 24 hours.

At the very centre of each of the poles, there must be a point that is effectively stationary - with everything else rotating around it.
This may only be a theoretical stationary point - but makes for a good discussion point if nothing else!

Once per day just like the rest of the planet.

one rpd (revolution per day)
1/(24*60) rpm
if you are talking about velocity in a straight line, the topic is meaningless - no radius from the axis.

1000 miles and hour.
