Any planet moves faster when it is in perihelion. It might be said that "falling toward the Sun" the Earth acquired more speed. In June, when it is again moving away from the Sun (against the Sun's gravity), its speed is less.

Does Objects that are falling toward Earth move faster and faster?
Until the object reaches it terminal velocity
Does the earth move faster then the moon?
The earth moves faster than the moon. Answer 2 Since they both take the same time to get round the Sun (1 year) they must both move at the same average speed. However, the Moon is also moving round the Earth. Unless its plane of rotation is at exactly 90 degrees to the path of the Earth around the Sun (which it isn't), there will be times when it's going around the Sun slightly faster than Earth and times when it's going slightly slower.
In what month do the earth move faster around the sun December or June?
December because it's closer to the sun then june
What causes the daily motion of the sun constellations and stars in the sky?
The sun doesn't actually move the earth moves so does the constellations and the stars. We see them move because the solar system spins on an axis just like earth but the earth moves much faster. So we see things move but at a very slow pace all day. The constellations and stars in the sky seem to move because just like all planets they move with the solar system.
How does the sun move round the earth?
The sun does not move around the earth.
Does earth move faster in its orbit near January or near July?
It moves faster in January, because that is when it is closest to the Sun (yes, really; the Earth's tilt has a larger impact on its seasons than its proximity to the sun does).
Does the earth move at a constant rate around the sun?
No. Earth moves in an ellipse around the Sun; when it is closest to the Sun (at its periapsis, in January), it moves faster, and when it is furthest from the Sun (at its apapsis), it moves slower.
Are spacecrafts made to move faster as they move away from the earth?
no they don't so shutup
Which planet seems to move faster when viewed from earth?
The wor
Does earth move faster or slower when in an elliptical orbit?
Slower or faster than what? - When the Earth is nearer the Sun (periapsis), it moves faster than when it is farther away from the Sun (apapsis).
Does Objects that are falling toward Earth move faster and faster?
Until the object reaches it terminal velocity
Which planet seems to move faster when viewed from earth explain?
mercury
If the earth spins faster would the moon go faster around the earth?
No. The speed of the moon's orbit does not depend on Earth's spin; it depends on Earth's mass. However, a faster spin on Earth's part would make the moon appear to move across the sky faster, as it would for the sun and stars.
What gose faster light or sound?
Light can move faster. Did you know that light from the Sun can reach Earth in just 8 minutes?
Where are radio waves faster-earth or space?
Radio waves travel with the highest speed in vacuum, and slightly slower in air. So they move slightly faster in space than on earth.
Does earth move faster in its orbit near perihelion (January) or near aphelion (July)?
In elliptical orbits, all bodies travel faster when nearest the "primary"; in this case, the Sun. Since the Earth's orbit isn't very eccentric (meaning that it is almost but not quite circular) the difference between perihelion velocity and aphelion velocity isn't very great.
Why do the particles move faster in a vacuum?
Particles do not move faster in a vacuum. Particles move faster when the temperature increases.
