Speed, (scalar quantity), is the rate at which an object covers distance. The average speed is the distance (scalar quantity) per time ratio. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes. The average velocity is the displacement or position change (vector quantity) per time ratio.

Circumference C=2πr
C=2π(1.5x10^8)=9.42x10^8 

In 365 Days there are 8760hr 

V=distance/time 

V=(9.42x10^8)/8760=107534.2km/hr

The atoms in a solid move about freely

ivolga24 [154]

No, not exactly. They jiggle and tremble and vibrate a lot, but
they always basically stay in very nearly the same place.

It's like if you're allowed to go anywhere you want in your jail cell,
you wouldn't exactly call that "moving about freely".
