Determine the kinetic energy that the earth has because of

(a) its rotation about its own axis and

(b) its motion around the sun. Suppose that the earth is a uniform sphere and that its path around the sun is circular. For comparison, the total energy used in the United States in one year is about 9.3 x 10¹⁹ Joule.
