Because our earth rotates from west to east
The Sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west due to the rotation of Earth on its axis from west to east. As Earth spins, different parts of the planet receive sunlight, causing the Sun to appear to move across the sky. This motion gives the illusion of the Sun rising in the east and setting in the west.
The sun rise's in the East ans set's in the west.
If you observe our moon, over the course of a night it appears to rise in the east and set in the west. However if you observe it over the course of a month you will see that each night it will be further toward the east. You will see that the moon is actually traveling from west to east around the earth. It only appears to rise in the east and set in the west just as the sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west. The sun actually isn't moving and the moon as well isn't moving in the direction it appears to be. It takes a month though to go around the earth from west to east. It does it so slowly that each night it doesn't seem to move except in the direction opposite to the earths rotation. Phobos travels west to east also. However it orbits Mars in only 7 hours. So Phobos appears to move in the direction it actually is moving. Thus appears to be doing exactly what it is doing: rising in the west and setting in the east.
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.
The moon rises in the east and sets in the west.
Because our earth rotates from west to east
The sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west. This is due to the Earth's rotation from west to east.
Rise in the East and set in the West.
yes...
It doesnt seem to it just does because the Earth rotates from West to East.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. This is due to the Earth's rotation from west to east, which creates the perception of the sun moving across the sky daily.
Yes.
The earth rotates in a clock wise motion thus making the sun rise in the east and set in the west.
No
i think so...
No, the opposite. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west because the earth rotates towards the east.
It is because of the spin of the earth
