I assume you mean the velocity of the earth around the sun. As the earth is 93 million miles from the sun, as it orbits the sun it traces out an approximate circle (actually a slight elipse) of radius 93 million miles. Using circumference = 2 X PI X radius, the circumference is 584,335,740 miles. It traces this distance out every year (actually 365 and one quarter days - the time for one orbit) so using velocity = distance divided by time, its velocity is 584,335,740 / 365 1/4 = 1,599,824 miles every day. As there are 24 hours in a day the speed is therefore 1,599,824 divided by 24 which is 66,659 mph.
What else can I help you with?
What is the velocity of earth in meters per second?
Earth's velocity through space is 297,800 m/s
The tangential velocity of an Earth satellite is its velocity?
The tangential velocity of an Earth satellite is its velocity perpendicular to the radius vector pointing towards the center of the Earth. It represents the speed at which the satellite is moving along its orbital path. This velocity is crucial for maintaining the satellite's orbit and is calculated using the satellite's distance from the center of the Earth and gravitational force acting upon it.
Can you consider earth as having a uniform velocity?
No. Earth's rotational velocity is slowing. Do you mean the velocity of Earth's revolution around the sun? The earth speeds up in its orbit until it reaches perihelion, and then slows until it reaches aphelion.
Is the escape velocity from the center of the earth different from the escape velocity from Earth's orbit?
Yes, very much so.
What is the moon's velocity around Earth?
The moon's average velocity around Earth is about 2,288 miles per hour.
What is the velocity of the moon as it orbits the Earth?
The velocity of the moon as it orbits the Earth is approximately 1 kilometer per second.
What is the relationship between the moon's velocity and its orbit around the Earth?
The moon's velocity affects its orbit around the Earth. The moon's velocity must be balanced with the gravitational pull of the Earth to maintain its orbit. If the velocity is too slow, the moon may fall towards the Earth; if it is too fast, the moon may move away from the Earth.
If a body falls freely from infinity then it will be striking the earth with what velocity?
The body will be striking the Earth with a velocity equal to its escape velocity, which is around 11.2 km/s. At this velocity, the body will have enough kinetic energy to overcome the gravitational pull of the Earth and reach the surface.
What is velocity that a rocket must attain to escape the force of gravity on earth?
The velocity of a any object to surpass the gravity of earth commonly known as escape velocity is 11.2Km/s.
What is the earth's greatest velocity?
perihelion
How is tangental velocity related to the moon falling around the earth?
Tangential velocity is the velocity at which an object moves along a curved path. In the case of the moon orbiting the Earth, the tangential velocity of the moon allows it to stay in its orbit and not fall into the Earth due to the balance between the gravitational force pulling it towards Earth and the centripetal force keeping it in orbit.
What is velocity parallel to Earth's surface?
The velocity parallel to Earth's surface depends on the frame of reference. Relative to Earth's surface, the velocity is zero if an object is at rest, and it varies depending on the direction and speed of the object's movement. If we consider the rotation of the Earth, objects on the surface have an eastward velocity due to the planet's rotation.
