That's the speed it needs for a stable orbit around the Sun. Any object at the distance of Jupiter (from the Sun) that moves much faster than that will be catapulted out of the Solar System; if it moves much slower than that, it will fall towards the Sun. 8 miles per second is approximately 13 km/second; for comparison, the Earth moves around the Sun at a speed of about 30 km/second. Being closer to the Sun, it must move faster to remain in a stable orbit.

At what speed does each planet orbit the Sun?
Mercury - 47.8725 km/sec = 107,000MPH Venus - 35.0214 km/sec = 78,350 MPH Earth - 29.7859 km/sec = 66,630 MPH Mars - 24.1309 km/sec = 54,000 MPH Jupiter - 13.0697 km/sec =29,240 MPH Saturn - 9.6724 km/sec = 21,640 MPH Uranus - 6.8352 km/sec = 15,290 MPH Neptune - 5.4778 km/sec = 12,250 MPH Pluto (TNO, or dwarf planet) = 10,700 MPH
How fast is 15 miles per second?
15 miles per second is 54,000 miles per hour. At that speed you could orbit the Earth twice, in less than one hour.
How fast the earth speedsof its orbit around the sun?
18.5 miles per second.
The distance from the sun to Jupiter is 778000000000 miles so How long does it take for light from the sun to reach Jupiter?
You seem have too many zeros. Jupiter is 778 million Kilometers (778,000,000), NOT miles from the Sun. The number of miles is about 484 million (484,000,000). Light will take just over 40 minutes to reach Jupiter. The speed of light is abut 186,000 miles per second (300,000 kilometers per second)
The dying comet fragments that continued to batter Jupiter travel at speeds of about?
The dying comet fragments that continued to batter Jupiter travel at speeds of about 37 miles per second (60 kilometers per second). These high speeds result in powerful impacts that can leave scars on the planet's surface.
What is the average speed of Jupiter in hours?
scientist say 9 miles per second amazing oh! yeah!
