When will the sun rise due east alrigh slightly north east tomorrow?

Answer 1

-- First and Third Quarters

-- Gibbous phases . . .

every moment during 'waxing' has an identical counterpart during 'waning'

-- Crescent phases . . .

every moment during 'waxing' has an identical counterpart during 'waning'

Answer 2

You are probably thinking, simplistically, of the "first quarter" and "third quarter" phases.

However, the waxing crescent has the same illuminated area as the waning crescent; the waxing gibbous the same illuminated area as the waning gibbous.

Answer 3

The sun appears to rise over the eastern horizon at the moment known as "sunrise". That's just before the time at the end of night when a straight line from your eye to the sun no longer goes through the ground.

The direction of that line is always changing because the earth, as it rotates, is constantly changing the direction in which the sun is to be found, as well as the direction in which your eyes point.

Sunrise happens somewhat before that actual moment because the path of light through the atmosphere curves slightly down, so we're able to see the sun while it's still slightly below the horizon.

Answer 4

It, too, rises in the east and sets in the west.

It, too, rises in the east and sets in the west.

It, too, rises in the east and sets in the west.

It, too, rises in the east and sets in the west.

Answer 5

The two phases of the waxing moon are waxing crescent and waxing gibbous. These both occur when the Moon is gaining illuminated area. The waxing crescent has from 1% to 49% illuminated and the waxing gibbous from 51% to 99% illuminated. Between the two is the first quarter (50% illuminated).

Answer 6

Well, there's almost certainly one or more days of the year on which that's

a true statement. But you posted it on June 21, and that's not one of them.

On June 21, the statement is: "Today, the sun rises as far north of due east

as it ever can, and will rise slightly less north of east tomorrow."

Answer 7

All over the Earth at the equinox, that is, beginning of spring, or beginning of autumn.

At the summer solstice at 23.4° N (the Tropic of Cancer).

At the winter solstice when you view the sunrise from a location at 23.4° S (Tropic of Capricorn).

Answer 8

... when it is the equinox (close to September 20 and March 22 - depending on the year and where in the leap year cycle you are).

Answer 9

When the moon is full, it rises at roughly the same time as the sun sets. Note that this may vary with latitude, and with the seasons of the year.

Answer 10

March 21 and March 22 each year, the day of the vernal equinox and the next day. (These dates can vary a day either way, depending on the cycle of leap years.)
