That should be approximately 50%, considering that the Earth is round, and the Sun is almost a point-source at a fairly large distance (compared to the size of the Earth). This does not consider clouds or mountains blocking sunlight. Considering that we don't see the Sun exactly as a point, as well as atmospheric refraction, the actual percentage is somewhat larger - once again, if you don't consider mountains or clouds.

Is the speed of revolution of earth is 30 km per sec?

Yes, that is the approximate speed of Earth, as it goes around the Sun. The exact speed depends on whether Earth is at periapsis or apapsis, but 30 km/sec. is a good approximation.Yes, that is the approximate speed of Earth, as it goes around the Sun.

How far does the earth travel when orbiting the sun?

You can approximate Earth's orbit as a circle, and therefore use the formula for the circumference of a circle. The radius is the distance Sun-Earth (150 million kilometers).


What is the approximate of the sun?

The sun has many measurable features, which include distance from the Earth, diameter, weight, brightness, temperature. You need to say what you are asking about.

This question does not make any sense.


When the earth revolves around the sun how far has the earth traveled?

This is an approximate answer. The Earth is 93 million miles from the sun. The circumference or orbit is 2 * pi * r , so 2 x 3.14 x 93 million = 584 million miles. Note this is approximate since the suns radius needs to be taken into consideration


What is the diameter of the sun in meters?

The Sun's diameter is approximately 1,391,000,000 meters in length, which is over 100 times the approximate diameter of the Earth (12,756,200 meters).


What is the length of the earth's path around the sun?

Calculating the circumference of an ellipse is complicated, but you can approximate Earth's path as a circle, since it is quite close to one. So, just multiply the average Earth-Sun distance by (2 x pi).


What is the approximate compression of the earths orbit around the sun?

The Earth's orbit is almost circular. Technically, the "eccentricity" of the orbit is about 0.0167.
