        You specified in reference to the sun. A day on earth is one rotation or revolution about its own axis. Has nothing to do with the sun. A rotation in reference to the sun is one year.

        Also relative to (not around) the sun. The full rotation the earth does in a day is relative to the position of the sun. The absolute amount of rotation is different.
