As kids, we learn that the Earth orbits the sun in an almost round trajectory. At what speed does Earth cover this route?

Earth orbits at an average speed of 29.78 kilometers per second (107,208 kilometers per hour; 66,616 miles per hour), which is fast enough to traverse the planet's diameter in seven minutes and the distance to the Moon in four hours.
