Earth's diameter = 8000 miles X (3.14) = 25,120 mi. / 24 hr. = 1043 mph (spin)
Diameter of earths orbit = 186,000,000 mi. X (3.14) = 584,000,000 mi. /
8760 hr. = 66,666 mph (orbit)
{365 days / year X 24 hours / day = 8760 hours / year}
TOTAL SPEED = 1043 mph X 66666 mph = 6,953,638 (Figure 7M mph) plus times the rate of expansion of the universe {71 +/- 4 (km/s)/Mpc}
Lucky we are holding on!
What else can I help you with?
What change would occur if earths rate of rotation significantly decreased?
the orbit
What is the earth greatest speed of earths rotation?
The speed of rotation is greatest at the equator; 1038 miles per hour.
What is determined by the speed of earths rotation on its axis?
The speed of Earth's rotation on its axis determines the length of a day. A faster rotation results in shorter days, while a slower rotation results in longer days.
Does the earths rotation cause the sun to remain in orbit?
No. Earth orbits the sun, not the other way around. Earth's orbit depends on the mass of the sun, not Earth's rotation. Earth's rotation does, however, give the appearance that celestial objects revolve around it.
What do changes in Earths orbit affect?
earths tempertures
What is earths speed in the orbit?
8600000000mph
What change would occur if earths rate of rotation significantly decreased?
the orbit
What is the earth greatest speed of earths rotation?
The speed of rotation is greatest at the equator; 1038 miles per hour.
Is the earths axis rotation almost parallel to the plane of its orbit?
No; it's about 23 degrees off the plane of its orbit.
Did the recent earthquake in japan speed up the earths rotation?
No.
Is the earths rotation a scientific fact?
it is. the orbit of the earth has been recorded by sattelites and other probes.
What is determined by the speed of earths rotation on its axis?
The speed of Earth's rotation on its axis determines the length of a day. A faster rotation results in shorter days, while a slower rotation results in longer days.

How does UK get four different seasons?
The same way every other place in the world does. Because of the inclination of rotation about the earths axis and the earths orbit around the sun.
What is an orbit in which a satellite travels at the same speed as the Earth's rotation?
A geostationary orbit is when a satellite orbits at the same speed as the Earth's rotation, allowing it to remain fixed above a specific point on the Earth's equator. This type of orbit is often used for communication satellites because they can maintain a constant connection with a specific location on Earth.
What is Something you can not keep up with?
Earths Orbit? Earths Orbit?
What would be the effect on satellites now in orbit if earth were to not be rotating on its axis?
The earths rotation about its axis has no affect on the orbit of satellites about earth. Only their relative velocities and positions are relevant, not their orientation
