The Earth is travelling around the sun at a speed of about​ 67,000 miles per hour​ [mph]. If it takes one year​ [yr] for the Earth to circle the Sun and we assume the​ Earth?s orbit is​ circular, what is the radius of the orbit in units of meters​ [m]? Use an appropriate SI prefix to report your answer so there are​ one, two, or three digits to the left of the decimal point.
