I the comment section, I noted that you hadn't asked a question. If you are seeking the kinetic energy of the earth, then the following might apply:
KE = 1/2 mv2
KE = kinetic energy = ?
m = mass in kg = 6.0x1027 g x 1 kg / 1000 g = 6.0x1024 kg
v = velocity in m/s = 3.5x104 m/s
KE = 1/2 (6.0x1024 kg)(3.5x104 m/s)2
KE = 3.7x1033 kg-m2/s2 = 3.7x1033 joules
