First off the Earth is technically continuously falling but is revolving around the Sun due to what are called gravitational forces, since the Sun is more massive than the Earth, the gravitational forces keep them in what is called the goldilocks zone, where life can exist due to being in the right spot for liquid water to not evaporate or freeze and complex life to exist as well. Also the Earths satellite the Moon is a smaller less massive object that pulls and pushes on the Earth as it revolves around us to make tides. The Earth is on a 23.5 degree angle like a spinning top but off-kilter a bit. Seasons keep changing due to its revolution around the Sun. Interesting to think how such a complex process is happening right in front of us. Last thing to mention is that we are current travelling thousands and thousands of miles per hour around the sun whilst the Earth is spinning at I think around 11ish thousand miles a hour. Also Gravity on our planet is 9.8 meters per second squared but, the Moons is current 1/4 of that check info so that what you have is correct.
