The speed of sound varies depending on the medium it is traveling through. In Earth's atmosphere, the speed of sound is about 343 meters per second. On Mars, where the atmosphere is much thinner, the speed of sound would be slower than on Earth. Therefore, the speed of sound from Mars to Earth would be slower than 343 meters per second.
Mars orbits the Sun at an average speed of about 24.07 km/s, or 54,054 mph. It takes approximately 687 Earth days for Mars to complete one orbit around the Sun.
It took the Curiosity Lander 253 days to get to Mars and the distance between Earth and Mars at their closest point is about 33,926,867 miles. Do the math correctly and the speed at which Curiosity was traveling was about 5,587 mph.
Mars orbits the sun with an average speed of about 24 kilometers per second, or about 53,500 miles per hour.
Mars has an average orbital speed of 24.077 kilometers per second (about 15 miles per second). This orbital speed allows Mars to complete one orbit around the Sun in about 687 Earth days.
Oh, dude, Mars is cruising around the sun at an average speed of about 24 kilometers per second. That's like really fast, but I mean, Mars has places to be, right? It takes Mars about 687 Earth days to complete one orbit, so it's like the slow and steady type, you know?
The speed of sound is only 768mph.
Mars orbits the Sun at an average speed of about 24.07 km/s, or 54,054 mph. It takes approximately 687 Earth days for Mars to complete one orbit around the Sun.

Not quite exactly, or nowhere-near, depending on what you mean by "how fast".Period of orbitEarth . . . 365.26 earth-daysMars. . . . 686.97 earth-daysThe Earth takes 53.2% as long as Mars does to orbit the sun. But that's "orbiting about twice as frequently", not "orbiting twice as fast".Average orbital speedEarth . . . 29.8 kms-1Mars. . . . 24.1 kms-1Earth only moves 26% faster than Mars in its orbit.
It depends. Because the distance between the Earth and the mars varies, the speed will also change if the time is given.If the mars is in perihelion and the earth in aphehelion, then you will have to go at speed of 1558.21917808 km/hr. But if the earth is in perihelion and the mars in aphehelion, then you will need a speed of 2916.66666666666........ km/hr in order to reach the moon in 4 years.
The orbital speed of mars averages at around 24.077 km/s.
Mars has a similar rotation speed as the Earth - 24 hours and 38 minutes.
Mars orbits the sun with an average speed of about 24 kilometers per second, or about 53,500 miles per hour.
The generic data rate to the Odyssey orbiter is 128-256Kbps. Data rates direct to Earth varies between about 500 and up to 32000 bits per second. Speed to the Mars Reconaissance Orbiter can be as high as 2Mbps. The signal speed is 3×108 ms-1.
