Yes. One of the physical laws that describe orbits in response to a central force is the fact that the smaller the orbit, the faster the orbiting body travels. Earth's average speed in its orbit around the sun is 18.5 miles (29.8 km) per second. Mercury's average speed in its orbit around the sun is 29.7 miles (47.9 km) per second.
Mercury orbits the sun much faster than Mars does. The closer to the sun any planet is, the faster it orbits. And Mercury is the closest, and fastest.
The orbital velocity of Mercury is about 47.87 km/sec compared to 29.78 km/sec for Earth.
This is about 1.6 times as fast as Earth.
Mercury is closest to the Sun and so, according to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, it orbits faster than other planets.
Yes, 88days = 1 Mercury year.
Mercury orbits much faster than Neptune.
yes
no
Mercury completes its orbit around the Sun faster than any other planet in our solar system.
Mercury takes 87.969 days to orbit the sun.
Mercury's orbit around the sun is approx 364 million km long.
Mercury.
mercury
The closer to the primary, the faster the orbit. Mercury is closest, and orbits the Sun in 88 days.
the fastest planet that orbit's the sun is mercury.
Mercury orbits the sun in 88 days because it is so close to the sun, 67,910000 KM from the it (to get the distance in miles divide it by 1.6 or .16 I forgot).
Mercury is.
The planet Mercury orbits the sun the fastest because it is the closest.
Mercury completes its orbit around the Sun faster than any other planet in our solar system.
Mercury takes 87.969 days to orbit the sun.
Mercury and Venus are closer to the Sun than Earth. As a result, they have a shorter way to travel, for a complete orbit around the Sun. Besides, they also go faster - this is also related to their smaller distance from the Sun.

Mercury's orbit around the sun is approx 364 million km long.
According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, the nearer a planet is to the Sun, the faster it travels in its orbit.
