Correct Answer: 30


Solution : The correct option is 30.

The average orbital speed of Earth around the Sun is approximately 30 kilometres per second (km/s). This speed can vary slightly due to the elliptical shape of Earth's orbit, but the mentioned value provides a good average. This speed is necessary to balance the gravitational pull of the Sun, keeping Earth in a stable orbit.
