That would depend on what you mean by a "day" on the sun. On earth it is nomally defined in terms of a cycle of light and dark but, since the sun is the source of day and night on earth, that definition would not work for the sun.
Another way of looking at it might be to consider how long the sun takes to rotate about its axis. Unlike the earth, though, the sun is not solid and does not rotate at the same rate all over. At its equator the sun rotates once every 24.5 days (approx) and that is probably the nearest to a straight answer that I can give.
That depends on what you'd call a 'day' on the sun.
If a day is one cycle of light and dark ... like it is for everything else in the solar system ... then
there's no such thing on the sun. The sun is the source of light in the solar system, so nowhere
on the sun ever gets dark.
On every planet including the earth, a 'day' is roughly the time it takes to spin on its axis. Even
that definition is hard to pin on the sun ... the sun isn't a solid body, so different parts of it spin
at different rates.
Depending on exactly where you look on the sun, the part you're looking at takes somewhere
between 25 and 36 earth days to make one complete revolution.

How many hours of daylight on the shortest day wick?
That completely depends on where on Earth you are, specifically your latitude. For example, at the north and south poles, there are one day and one night in a year, and they're both six months long.
Why is a day 24 hours and a year 365 days?
The time from when a point on the earth's surface is facing the sun until the next time that point is again facing the sun (due to the earth's rotation) averages 24 hours.The time from when one of the earth's poles is as close as possible to pointing at the sun until the next time that pole is again as close as possible to pointing at the sun (due to the earth's orbit of the sun) is about 365.2422 days.

The "day" on Mars, the time it takes for one complete rotation, is about 24.62 Earth hours.
How long does it take for the earth to revolve on its axis?
One day.

How long does it take for earth to spin aroundon its axsis one time?
It takes approximately 24 hours for Earth to complete one full rotation on its axis. This is what causes day and night on our planet.
