The Earth rotates one complete turn on its axis in approximately 24 hours. If you consider the size of the Earth at the equator, our circumference is approximately 40,074 kilometers. That means that the Earth rotates (at the equator) at a speed of approximately 1,670 kilometers per hour. The more you head toward a pole, the less distance in the circumference of the Earth, and the slower the rate of rotation.

We travel round the Sun at 1,076,027kph.
Speed at the Earths equator is 1041mph.

rotation: about 1100 miles per hour
orbit around the sun: about 35,000 miles per hour

1 year to get around the sun,
1 day to spin on it's axis.

1spd (one spin per day)
and 1Rpd (one rotation a year.)
