Because it is the closest to the sun. The Sun's gravitational field (in conjunction with centrical force) is what causes the orbit or the planets. Gravity is four times more powerful if you halve the distance between you and the gravitation field, so therefore Mercury experiences the most gravity of any planet. This causes Mercy to spin rapidly around the Sun.
The fastest moving planet in out solar system is Mercury, which is named after the roman god of speed.
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun in our solar system.
Mercury has the fastest rotation of any planet in our solar system, completing a full rotation on its axis in just under 59 Earth days. It is also the smallest planet in our solar system.
Mercury is the smallest planet in the Solar System. Jupiter is the largest.
Mercury is a planet in our solar system, not a solar system itself. Our solar system has eight planets, and Mercury is the closest planet to the sun.
The planet Mercury has the fastest movement in our solar system.
Mercury
Mercury moves the fastest 48 km/s
Mercury is the Speediest planet in our solar system.
Yes, as now the Pluto is excluded from the solar system, it is the smallest and the fastest planet in the solar system.
The fastest moving planet in out solar system is Mercury, which is named after the roman god of speed.
Mercury in 88 days.
Yes! The closer planets are to the sun the faster they go. Since Murcury is closest, it is the fastest.
jupiter is the fastest spinning planet in our solar system.
Mercury is the fastest planet in the solar system. It orbits the sun in only 88 days. This means a year on Mercury is 88 days long.
Mercury is the fastest revolving planet. The speed of a particular planet depends on its revolution around the sun as well as its rotation on its own axis. The fastest planet of the solar system with reference to revolution is Mercury. On the other hand, the fastest planet with reference to rotation is Jupiter.
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun in our solar system.
