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.
What are the first five planets from the sun?
The first five planets in the order from closest to farthest are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and Jupiter. The first four planets are inner planets, and Jupiter is an outer planet.
How does the temperature of the inner planets compare to the temperature of the outer planets?
The inner planets are typically warmer than the outer planets. This is because the inner planets are closer to the sun and receive more direct sunlight, leading to higher temperatures. In contrast, the outer planets are much farther from the sun and are colder as a result.
What is the clue that the earth is moving?
The apparent movement of celestial objects across the sky is a clue that the Earth is moving. For example, the Sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west due to the Earth's rotation, while the changing positions of stars throughout the night indicate the Earth's rotation on its axis. Additionally, the changing positions of the planets over time are further evidence of Earth's orbital motion around the Sun.
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.
What planet rises as the sun sets?
There are no planets that have constant rise and set times; those times change daily as the Earth and other planets follow their own orbital paths through the solar system. There are two planets that NEVER "rise as the sun sets"; Mercury and Venus are closer to the Sun than Earth is.

What set of planets have more moons terrestrial or gas?

Why does the sun rise in the west and and set in the east on venus?
Venus has retrograde rotation. That means that Venus rotates clockwise. Venus's clockwise spin is opposite to most planets, causing the Sun to appear to rise in the west and set in the east on its surface. However an observer on Venus would not be able to see the Sun or stars due to the thick clouds that cover the sky.

Do sun and moon rise and set same location?
Not exactly, but pretty much the same direction. You need to think of our solar system as a flat plane (not airplane). If you looked at it from the side (edge-on) you would see that planets don't orbit the star going above and below the sun with respect to this view (edge-on). Some planets have orbits that do take them below and above the plane, but not by a lot. Since the sun and moon "setting" is caused by the Earths rotation on it's axis. The moon and sun will appear to "rise" in the East, while "setting" in the West. The exact degree will depend on your location on Earth. Since the planets and moons follow this plane they will all appear to rise and set in the same area. This is what we astronomers call the Ecliptic.
Does the sun set on other planets?
Yes
