The sun rises and sets because the earth rotates constantly. As the earth rotates on its tilt, it gives the illusion that the sun is moving across the sky. A day is twenty-four hours and that's how long it takes for the earth to rotate once around on its tilt. So the sun is in one place and the earth is moving. Therefore, the sun rises then sets as the earth faces the sun then turns to face the outer universal space.

Why is it that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west?
The Sun, Moon and stars only appear to "rise" and "set" because we live on a spinning Earth. The Earth spins west-to-east once every 24 hours.
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.
Do the sun moon and stars appear to rise in the east and set in the west because of the rotation of the moon?
The sun, moon, and stars all appear to rise in the east and set in the west due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. This rotation causes all celestial bodies to appear to move across the sky from east to west. The moon's own orbit around the Earth affects its position, but it does not directly impact the sun and stars.
Why does the sun seem to rise in the east and set in the west?
The Earth rotates on its axis from west to east, causing the sun to appear to rise in the east and set in the west as our perspective changes throughout the day. This daily movement of the sun is a result of the Earth's rotation, which gives the illusion of the sun moving across the sky.

Why do planets rise and set?
Planets rise and set in the sky due to the Earth's rotation. As the Earth spins on its axis, different parts of its surface come into view of the Sun, causing celestial objects like planets to appear to rise in the east and set in the west as they move across the sky.
