The starting point of the sun's rotation is typically considered to be the equator of the sun. The sun rotates on its axis, which passes through its equator, completing a full rotation approximately once every 27 days.
Mercury has a oval rotation because of the suns gravity
Different layers rotate at different speeds. See related question.
The rotation rate of a planet affects its atmosphere by creating winds and atmospheric circulation patterns. Faster rotation can lead to stronger winds and more prominent atmospheric circulation, while slower rotation can result in more stable atmospheric conditions. Additionally, the Coriolis effect, caused by the planet's rotation, influences the direction of winds and ocean currents.
It's about 66.5 degrees above the northern horizon.
25 days for a rotation at the equator, 34 days for a rotation near the poles.
Strangely, the Suns has a differential rotation. At the equator, it takes 25 days for one rotation; near the poles, 34 days.
