Because Mercury is closer to the Sun and orbits a lot faster.
That's right and astronomers define a year as the time taken to orbit the Sun.
88 earth days
Every planet's year is longer than 365 days except for Mercury and Venus. Earth's year is aproximately 365.25 days, people just combined them for an extra day every 4 years.
the earth obrits the sun in about 365 days(one year.
One year on Mars is about 687 earth days compared to the the 365 days in a year on Earth.
No. A year on Earth is 365 1/4 days, while on Mars a year is 687 Earth days.
Mercury orbits the Sun once in about 88 Earth days. That's Mercury's year. One year one Earth is about 365 days. So Earth's year is about 4 times longer.
A year on earth is 365 days. A year on Venus is 224.7 Earth days and a year on Mercury is 88 Earth days. A year on Mars is 687 Earth days and a year on Saturn is 29.7 Earth years long.
It takes roughly 365 days for the Earth to go around the Sun once. It takes 87.97 Earth days for Mercury to orbit the sun once.
Because Mercury orbits the Sun much faster than Earth. It takes Earth 365 days to orbit the sun once, but it only takes Mercury 88 days.
A year for Mercury is 88 days. Earth's year is 365 days. The nine year old would have lived 3285 days on Earth. On Mercury, that would translate to 37.329 years for a nine year old earthling.
The year on the planet Mercury is very short. A year on this planet lasts 88 days compared to 365 days on Earth.
88 earth days
The length of a year for each planet increases as each planet is farther from the Sun. The lengths are: Mercury: 88 days, Venus: 225 days, Earth: 365 days, Mars: 687 days, Jupiter: 12 years, Saturn: 30 years, Uranus: 84 years and Neptune: 165 years.
365.14 earth days
There are 365 days in a year.
Every planet's year is longer than 365 days except for Mercury and Venus. Earth's year is aproximately 365.25 days, people just combined them for an extra day every 4 years.
