The Earth spins at a rate of about 15 degrees per hour. At the equator, the "tangent velocity" is about 1,066 miles per hour, and this speed decreases as latitude increases. At mid-latitudes in the United States - or in Australia - the velocity is between 600 and 800 miles per hour.
I learned it was about 1000 miles pur hour
The Earth spin speed in miles is 25000/24 or just over 1000 mph. This is based on the equators Earth circumference of 25,000 mi and that the Earth rotation is in 24 hrs.
The earth spins at the rate of (one complete spin plus a tiny bit more) every 24 hours.

If you're standing on the equator, then you're moving toward the east at about

1,040 miles per hour.

If you're standing halfway between the equator and either the north or south pole,

then you're moving toward the east at about 735 miles per hour.

If you're standing 70 miles from the north or south pole, then you're moving

toward the east at about 18 miles per hour.

If you're standing right on top of the north or south pole, then you're just spinning,

not moving east or west.

Speed of rising sun?

The Earth spins at about 1000 miles per hour (This is a general assumption for the sake of argument - actually how fast the Earth spins depends where you are on the planet). It is the spin of the Earth that gives us our days and nights. Therefore it is not so much a matter of how fast the Sun rises, but rather how fast our Earth spins in relation to the Sun since our planet remains at a fairly constant relative distance from our nearest star. To answer the question in general terms - the Sun rises in the East and sets in the West at about 1000 miles an hour.
