The Earth's orbit is an ellipse with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse. But it isn't very eccentric; the orbit is almost circular, but not quite.
If the Earth's orbit was circular, it would travel at about 67,000 miles per hour. At perihelion (in January) the Earth is moving a little faster than that, while at aphelion (in July) it is moving just a little slower.
In its orbit around the Sun, the Earth moves at about 30 km/sec.
Pluto moves around the Sun, not the earth
In its orbit around the Sun, the Earth moves at 30 km/second.
The Earth is orbiting the sun at an average speed of 30 kilometers per second.
At around 30km per second.
The Earth does not fall into the sun because it is moving fast enough around it. Imagine a weight on the end of a string like a conker, with the weight being the earth, and where you hold the string being the sun. If you swing it around fast enough, the weight spins in circles and does not go near your hand, but if you swing it slowly, the weight will fall in. So because the earth is spinning fast enough around the sun, it does not fall in.
it takes Neptune 165 earth years to orbit the sun

About 30 km/sec.
The moon orbits the Earth, which takes one year to go around the Sun.

Mercury. It takes 87.970 Earth days to revolve once around the Sun.
