When calculating the velocity of the earth there are three major vectors to calculate. First, the velocity of the earth as it orbits the sun. Second, the velocity as the solar system rotates around the galaxy. Third, the velocity that the Milky Way galaxy is moving through the universe. The Earth moves at 30 km/sec around the sun. The sun moves at 250 km/sec around the Milky Way and finally, the Milky Way is moving at about 300 km/second.

∙ 15y agoThe speed of the earth in its orbit about the sun varies a bit as the earth gets a little closer or farther away from the sun. That's because the orbit of the earth is slightly eccentric or eliptical. Closer in it moves a bit faster, and farther out it moves a bit slower. Earth has an average speed of about 29.783 kilometers per second, which is about 18.5063 miles per second. That's about 107,218 kilometers per hour, or about 66,622.1765 miles per hour.

Multiplying Earth's equatorial radius by its angular velocity yields Earth's rotational speed at the equator, 465.1 m/s or 1674.4 km/h

How fast does the earth rotate on its axis in one hour?
A little more than 15 degrees per hour. How fast that is in miles per hour depends on the latitude; at the poles it's zero, but at the equator it's around a thousand.
How fast does mars go around the sun?
Mars takes about 1.88 Earth years to rotate around the sun. These Earth years equal to about 687 Earth days.
How does the moon travel around the earth?
2,288 miles per hour
How fast does a space shuttle travel around earth in miles per hour?
17,580 MPH
How fast is the space shuttle traveling as it orbits the Earth?
Answer The speed in orbit is around 17500 miles an hour.
Does the Earth rotate at a great speed?
Yes, over 1000 miles per hour.
HOW MANY M.P.H. DOES THE EARTH ROTATE AROUND THE SUN?
The Earth's path around the Sun is elliptical, and the Earth's speed around that path varies a little; faster when we're closest (around January 4) and more slowly when we're farthest away (around July 2). But the difference is only around 3%. On average, the Earth is moving a little over 66,600 miles per hour in its path around the Sun.
How fast does the earth rotate on its axis in one hour?
A little more than 15 degrees per hour. How fast that is in miles per hour depends on the latitude; at the poles it's zero, but at the equator it's around a thousand.
How many miles does the world rotate per an hour?
The earth's circumference at the Equator is 24,902 miles. It makes a complete rotation in 24 hours, so divide the Equator's length by 24. The answer is that, at the Equator, the Earth rotates at 1,037 miles per hour.
How long does take Venus's to rotate?
Venus revolves or orbits around the sun once every 0.615 Earth years, or once every 224.7 Earth days. Venus travels at an average speed of 78,341 miles per hour or 126,077 kilometers per hour in its orbit around the sun.
How fast does mars go around the sun?
Mars takes about 1.88 Earth years to rotate around the sun. These Earth years equal to about 687 Earth days.
How does the moon travel around the earth?
2,288 miles per hour
How does earth rotate and revolution around the sun?
The Earth rotates every hour and it takes 365.25 days to go around the sun. the earth rotates with the magnetic poles and it uses gravity to go around the sun
How fast does Earth rotate around the sun?
Terra does not rotate around Sol. It revolves. The velocity averages ~139,000 kph. It's not an exact measurement since no orbit is perfect or unaffected by gravitational forces. Keep in mind our little buddy Luna is along for the ride as well. Cheers!
How fast does venus rotate in miles per hour?
The radius of Venus is 3760 miles and it takes 5832 hours to rotate. Therefore, it rotates at 4.050887647 miles every hour (rounded). I hope this helps :)
