13) As observed from the earth, sun appears to move around the earth in a circular orbit though in reality
earth moves around the sun due to gravitational force between them. All planets move around the sun
due to huge gravitational force of the sun acting on them. The gravitational force on mercury due to
earth is much smaller as compared to that acting on it due to sun and hence it revolves around the sun
and not around the earth.
