Why do the sun and moon rise?
The Earth's rotation causes the sun and moon to 'rise' and 'set. The rotation also causes the sun and moon to move across the sky from east to west, but really this is an illusion we see on out planet.
What explains the motion of the sun?
The Earth's rotation causes the Sun to rise in the east and set in the west every day.
Why do you say that the sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west?
The reason it is said that the sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west is that it doesn't actually rise or set. From our vantage point, it appears that the sun is moving across the sky when in reality, it is the rotation of our own planet that causes the transition from night to day and so on.
What is the planet on which the sun does not rise and set?
All planets that rotate in our solar system will see apparent sun rise and sun set There are no planets that are stationary not to view the apparent sun rise and sun set.
How is the rotation of earth causes the sun to set a scientific theory?
The Sun is at the centre of our solar system. the Earth not only orbits the Sun - but also spins on its axis. The spinning of the earth presents a different area of the planet's surface towards the Sun - making the sun appear to rise and set.

Describes a backward rotation which causes the sun to rise in the west and set in the east?
The word you're looking for is "retrograde".
Where does the sun appear to rise then to set?
Rise in the East and set in the West.
What is the planet on which the sun does not rise and set?
All planets that rotate in our solar system will see apparent sun rise and sun set There are no planets that are stationary not to view the apparent sun rise and sun set.
When sun set time is same why sun rise time is different?
Because the orbit of the sun is some what curved and elliptical so it causes variation in timings of sunrise and sunset.
Does the revolution of the sun causes the sun to appear to set?
The rotation of the earth is what causes the sun to appear to set
Does the earth set and does the sun rise?
no and no
What motion of the earth causes the sun to rise and set and how long is this movement?
The Earth rotates about its axis, causing the sun to rise and set. A full rotation happens every 23.934 hours. (Which is close to 24 hours, which is why a full day-night cycle is about 24 hours long.)
What motion of the Earth causes the sun to seem to rise and set each day?
The sun appears to rise and set every 24 hours because of Earth's rotation on its tilted axis about the sun. The sun is located at the center of the solar system and does not change in position. However, as the Earth makes one complete revolution every 24 hours, different regions of the world pass through the sun's light, causing the effects of a sunrise and a sunset.
