Its speed will vary greatly as its orbit is highly eccentric. It will be slower when further out from the sun on its 11,000 year orbit. Its average speed is around 1.04 km/s.

What are the orbital speeds of Jupiter's Galilean moons compared to earth's moon?

There are about 63 known moons of Jupiter but the Galilean moons are the 4 moons visible and Ganymede ,the largest found by Galileo Galilee in January 7 1610.The orbital speed of the Jovian moons vary where the Jupiter's magnetic field is very strong.Only a mean speed can be used for comparison.The four moons and their orbital speed compared to the orbital speed of Earth's moon are:Jovian Moons Orbital speed/ Orbital speed Ratio(km/s) (Earth's moon)1.
