The direction of the setting sun itself has not changed; it continues to set in the west due to the Earth's rotation. However, the exact position on the horizon where the sun sets can vary throughout the year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. This phenomenon causes the sunset to shift northward and southward with the seasons. Thus, while the general direction remains west, the specific point can change seasonally.
If the sun is setting, the rainbow would be in the opposite direction in the sky, typically in the eastern part of the sky. This is because rainbows form when sunlight is refracted, reflected, and dispersed by raindrops in the atmosphere, creating a colorful arc opposite the sun's position.
No planet in our solar system has a reverse orbit around the Sun. All the planets orbit the Sun in the same direction, counterclockwise when viewed from above the Sun's north pole. However, Venus has a retrograde rotation, meaning it spins on its axis in the opposite direction to its orbit around the Sun. This unique rotation results in the Sun rising in the west and setting in the east on Venus.
The sun travels from east to west regardless of whether you're in the northern hemisphere or the southern hemisphere. Although we say the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the actual map directions range from rising north-east and setting north-west in the summer to rising south-east and setting south-west in the winter.
That direction is called East.
The sun rises from the east and sets in the west.
Head for the setting sun.

Look for a rainbow opposite to the direction of the Sun. This means that if the Sun is setting in the West, the rainbow will appear in the Eastern sky.
The sun always sets in the western quadrant of on the earth's horizon, ranging from setting south of west in December to setting north of west in June.west
Occidens is the Latin word for West, the direction of the setting sun.
The Setting Sun was created in 1947.
No its not called the setting sun .

Venus rotates in the opposite direction of Earth, meaning it has a retrograde rotation. This results in the sun rising in the west and setting in the east on Venus, unlike on Earth where the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
Ideally it should be north-south to avoid the direct eye contact with setting sun behind the bowlers arm, in some grounds direction of winds also play a part in deciding the pitch direction.
acceleration in a direction that is not parallel to the direction you are moving
