You can do the math for yourself; it isn't hard. The Earth's orbit is an ellipse, but it's VERY close to being a circle; so close that we can assume that it is for these purposes. The circumference of a circle is 2 times the radius times "pi", the irrational number. "Pi" is pretty close to 3.1412, and our assumption about the orbit being circular and the radius of Earth's orbit doesn't justify using any higher precision.
The Earth's orbit is 92,957,000 miles away from the Sun, so the circumference is 584,066,873 miles.
This takes one year to accomplish, which is 365.24 days. So the Earth is traveling at 1,599,131 miles per day.
There are 24 hours in a day, so this is 66,630 miles per hour. == ==

What else can I help you with?
How many times does the sun go around the earth in 1 year?
The Sun does not go around the Earth; rather, it appears to the observer on Earth that the Sun orbits the Earth due to the Earth's rotation and its orbit around the Sun. In reality, the Earth orbits the Sun once per year.
How many times does the earth go around the sun year?
The earth goes around the sun 1 time per year. Scientests have been studing the sun and how fast its moving and the sun seems to be speeding up!
When the earth goes around the sun does the moon go with the earth?
Yes, the moon has its own orbit around the earth, held in place by the earth's gravity. As the earth orbits around the sun, the moon goes with it.
Does the sun go around the earth or the earth or around the sun?
The earth orbits around the sun. Extra Fact- The moon orbits around the earth.More correctly, astronomical bodies orbit a mutual centre of gravity. However because the sun is so much more massive than the earth, in practical terms, it is correct to say the earth orbits the sun.
What are examples of an orbit?
Examples of orbits include the orbit of the Earth around the Sun, the Moon around the Earth, and artificial satellites orbiting the Earth. Additionally, planets in our solar system like Mars or Venus also have their own orbits around the Sun.
How fast does the earths moon go around the sun?
The moon orbits the Earth, which takes one year to go around the Sun.
Does the sun go round the earth?
no, the earth orbits around the sun
How fast does Jupiter go around the sun?
Jupiter orbits the sun in about 10 hours (600 minutes.) Jupiter is the fastest spinning planet. It orbits around the Sun over 100 thousand minutes faster than Earth. Jupiter orbits the Sun about 8750 minutes faster than Earth.
How many times does the sun go around the earth in 1 year?

Which cant go around earth the moon sun or a boat or plane?
The sun. The earth orbits the sun, the others all go around the earth.
Does earth go around the sun or does the sun go around earth?
The earth orbits around the sun. Extra Fact- The moon orbits around the earth.More correctly, astronomical bodies orbit a mutual centre of gravity. However because the sun is so much more massive than the earth, in practical terms, it is correct to say the earth orbits the sun.
How many times does the earth go around the sun year?
The earth goes around the sun 1 time per year. Scientests have been studing the sun and how fast its moving and the sun seems to be speeding up!
Do we have days and nights because the sun orbits the earth?
No. (But if you like that idea, go read Terry Pratchett.)
How long is it that it takes the moon to revolve around the sun?
The Moon orbits the Earth, and that takes 27 days to complete an orbit.Since the Earth orbits the Sun, the time taken for the Moon to go oncearound the Sun is the same as for the Earth. a year.
How do the the orbits of comets and asteroids compare to that of planet Earth?
they go around the sun like the earth
When the earth goes around the sun does the moon go with the earth?
Yes, the moon has its own orbit around the earth, held in place by the earth's gravity. As the earth orbits around the sun, the moon goes with it.
How long does it take Neptune to go around the earth in earth days?
it doesent orbit the earth it orbits the sun.
