It really depends on the current distance of Mercury from The Sun. The orbit of Mercury (and of all the planets) is not perfectly circular. There are times Mercury is closer to The Sun than other times. When it's at its closest, or perihelion, Mercury is a little over 28.5 million miles from The Sun, and light takes just over 2 minutes and 33 seconds to travel from The Sun to Mercury. When Mercury is at is farthest distance, or aphelion, it is almost 43.4 million miles from the Sun, and light takes just over 3 minutes and 53 seconds to travel from The Sun to Mercury.
So, based on the dates that Mercury is at aphelion and perihelion, your answer is:
On August 21st, 2009, light takes 3 minutes and 53 seconds to travel from The Sun to Mercury
On October 4th, 2009, light takes 2 minutes and 33 seconds to travel from The Sun to Mercury.
The mean distance from Mercury to the Sun is 58 million km, or approximately 3.2 light-minutes. It takes the Sun's light from 2 1/2 to 3 3/4 minutes to reach Mercury. The orbit of Mercury varies from 28,583,820 miles (46,001,200 km, 0.307499 AU) to 42,760,839 miles (68,816,900km, 0.466697 AU)
It is only about 3.22 light minutes away from the Sun.
Mercury's distance from the Sun varies a lot, because its orbit is not nearly circular. So this answer is just an average.
Some tiny fraction of one. The Sun is about 8 light minutes from Earth, and the average distance to Mercury is the same.
Approximately 3.2 minutes
It will posibly take about 2 years to get to the sun from mercury.
Mercury: 0.2408 earth yearsSaturn: 29.46 earth years.
Mars takes longer to orbit Sun than Mercury because it is farther away from the sun, so it travels a longer distance.
The Sun doesn't revolve around Mercury, Mercury revolves around the Sun. For Mercury to revolve around the Sun, it takes 88 Earth days.
It takes Mercury 88 earth days to orbit the Sun.
It takes approx 194 seconds, or 3.23 minutes.
Mercury's average distance from the sun is 36 million miles (58 million km).The time for light to cover that distance is about 193 seconds.
Do you mean how long does it take Mercury to orbit the sun ? 87.969 days
Mercury's orbit of the sun takes 87.969 days.
Mercury orbits the sun not the Earth
it takes mercury 88 earth days to revolve around the sun
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun thus Mercury has the shortest orbit duration. It takes the planet Mercury 88 days to rotate around the sun.
About 88 Earth days.
88 days
That would depend on where you're coming from. If you started at the sun, the trip would average 3minutes 13seconds.
87.9691 Earth days.
