Mercury is cited as being 36,000,000 miles from the Sun. If you were traveling at the speed of a large commercial jet airliner (500 mi per hour) it would take you...

36,000,000 / 500 mi per hour = 72,000 hours or 3000 days or approximately 8 years 2 months and 2 weeks to get to the Sun

Cool huh?

How long would it take to get to mercury if traveling at a speed of 100000 km per hr?

That would depend on where Earth and Mercury were on their particular orbits of the Sun. Assuming they were at their closest conjunction as Mercury is 57.91 million km from the Sun and Earth is 149.6 million km from the Sun, the distance between them will be 91.69 km. So at a speed of 1 million km/hour it would take you 91.69 hours to reach Mercury From Earth.
