about 4.15 times
Mercury orbits the sun 4.149 times each year
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.
Which planet is closest to Earth varies depending on where the planets are in their orbits. At different times the closest planet may be Mercury, Venus, or Mars. The planet whose orbit comes closest to Earth's is Venus.
Mercury has the smallest orbit. It orbits the closest of all the planets to the sun.
The sun NEVER orbits Earth. Earth orbits the sun. All of the other planets also orbit the sun.
Mercury orbits the sun 4.149 times each year
The moon orbits the Earth approximately 13 times in a year.

Mercury rotates once every 58.6 Earth days, and orbits the Sun in about 88 Earth days.The result is that Mercury's "solar day" is about 176 Earth days, twice as long as its year.
The Moon orbit the the earth every 29.5 days.
No plants have been detected anywhere else but on the earth's surface. Mercury and Venus can be seen as crescents when their positions in their respective orbits are related to the earth's position in just the right way.
The Moon orbits the earth nearly once a month. It orbits every 28 days. In a year, the Moon can orbit the earth 13 times.
Which planet is closest to Earth varies depending on where the planets are in their orbits. At different times the closest planet may be Mercury, Venus, or Mars. The planet whose orbit comes closest to Earth's is Venus.
One. The reason is that the moon orbits the earth, very close by. The earth describes a huge circle around the sun, while at the same time the moon describes about 13 tiny circles around the earth. All in all, it makes the same number of solar orbits as does the earth.
Only once, that is why we have winter, summer, spring, and fall
Mercury orbits the sun every 88 days, the earth orbits the sun every 365 days.Therefore 365/ 88 = 4.14 times
Mercury is locked into a 3/2 spin-orbit resonance where it rotates three times on its axis for every two orbits around the sun
