At the North Pole the sun will rise above the horizon on and set below the horizon on?
At the North Pole, the Sun will rise above the horizon when spring starts, and it will set at the start of autumn.___________________________If you are at the north pole, then the Sun will rise about March 19, and set about September 23.I know, you expected to hear "March 21" and "September 21", right? Well, the fact is that the Sun's light is refracted around the Earth by the atmosphere; when we see the Sun peek over the horizon, it is ACTUALLY a couple of degrees BELOW the horizon! Celestial navigators have to apply a small correction to observations that are within about 15 degrees of the horizon.This leads to an interesting quirk; an observer at the south pole and an observer at the north pole will BOTH see the Sun as being just above the horizon!
What is the apparent movement when the sun is at sunset?
The apparent movement when the sun is at sunset is the sun appearing to move along the horizon line, gradually decreasing in altitude until it disappears from view. This is due to the Earth's rotation causing the sun to appear to set below the horizon.

What is the scientific explanation for the optical illusion of the sun appearing to rise and set over the horizon?
The optical illusion of the sun appearing to rise and set over the horizon is due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth spins, it creates the illusion that the sun is moving across the sky, when in reality, it is the Earth that is moving. This phenomenon is known as sunrise and sunset.
How many degrees above the horizon does the upper edge of a rainbow usually reach?
The altitude of the highest point of the rainbow that you see is (42 degrees) minus (the altitude of the sun above the horizon behind you). If the sun is sitting right on the horizon ... just risen or just about to set ... then the highest point of the rainbow is about 42 degrees above the horizon opposite the sun. If the sun is higher, then the rainbow is lower, by the same amount. If the sun is more than about 42 degrees above the horizon, then any rainbow you might otherwise see is entirely below the opposite horizon, and you don't see one.
