Where exactly sun rises in the east and north east and south east all so when?
The sun rises in the east at the equinoxes, around March 21 and September 23. During the summer solstice, around June 21, it rises more toward the northeast, while in winter, around December 21, it rises more toward the southeast. The specific angle varies based on your geographical location, but these general patterns hold true worldwide.
Is it true that for Britain the sun appears to rise in the east?
This is true not only for Britain, but for everywhere in the world. The Sun rises in the east. Sometimes a little north of east, sometimes a little south of east, but generally east. In reality, the Sun doesn't move; it's the Earth spinning from west to east that makes it appear that way.
Does Venus rotate east to west or west to east?
From East to West, it is the only planet in our solar system to do so. All the others rotate West to East. Comments: That's not quite true. Uranus is another one. Here's a bit of pedantry: It depends how you define the North pole of a planet. There are two ways to do that, unfortunately. On one definition, Venus actually rotates from West to East. However, nearly everyone ignores that and says Venus rotates from East to West.
Does the sun rise faster or set faster?
This depends on the season. Today is September 7, 2009, so here in the northern hemisphere (I live near Sacramento, California) the Sun rises a little later and sets a little earlier each day. It will continue this way, with the days getting a little shorter each daym until December 21, the winter solstice. After December 21, which is the shortest day of the year, the Sun will begin to rise a bit earlier and set a little later each day until the summer solstice on June 21. In the southern hemisphere, the seasons are reversed, so in September the sun rises earlier and sets later each day, and will until their summer solstice, which will be December 21.
What moon phase is visible due south at midnight?
Full Moon. I think it could be more or less any phase. The phase of the Moon doesn't change much from moonrise until the Moon sets. True. But it is only the Full Moon that rises as the sun sets, and so is highest in the sky ... due south for northern-hemisphere observers ... at Midnight.

Which way is east and which way is west?
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. * A general direction of east and west can be determined by the sun rising in the east and setting in the west..however this only a geneal reference and is not true east/west except for certain times of the year.. * In the northern hemisphere the sun rises at its most southerly point in midwinter(southeast) - this is known as the winter solstice (December 21st) - and in mid-summer at its most northerly point (northeast)- the summer solstice (June 21st). Midway between those dates the sun rises due east and sets due west on the spring equinox (March 21st) and the autumn equinox (September 23rd)...
Which way does the sun rise in Japan?
This is just a personal opinion, however I would say there is a good chance it rises in the East and sets in the West...and at a risk, I would say its the same for anywhere on Earth. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The above is of course correct, but I suspect the question relates to the saying that Japan is "the land of the rising sun" - if this is the case then the questioner should go the the link I will place below and read the explanation.

What side does the sunset take place?
Around 21 March and 23 September, the setting sun is almost due west. However, the direction in which the sun sets changes from day to day. If you watch sunsets from the same location for a year, you'll observe the sun setting a little further towards the south each day between 21 June and 21 December, and a little further towards the north each day between 21 December and 21 June. Around 21 June, the sunsets is furthest to the north, and around 21 December it is furthest towards the south.
Which planet has sunrise in the west and a sunset in the east?
Yes. With the exception of the geographic north and south poles the sun rises from the easterly coordinate. Depending on your latitude and the time of year it will be more or less nearly due east.
From England what side of the earth does the sun rise?
Yes and all over the world (except at the poles where there is no East or West) it rises more or less in the east. On the solstices it is furthest from true east (the June solstice has the sun more to the north, the December solstice more to the south). At the equinoxes it rises due east.
Where exactly sun rises in the east and north east and south east all so when?

Does the sun rise in the east or the?
The sun always rises in the East and sets in the West. Depending on the season, it may rise more or less north or south of east, and set more or less north or south of west, but there's always at least a fair component of "east" in the rising, and "west" in the setting. Regardless of whether you are in the Northern or the Southern Hemisphere, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The difference between the hemispheres, however, is that in the Northern, the sun travels across the southern sky, whereas in the south, the sun travels across the northern sky. In true point of fact, the Sun doesn't really "rise" anywhere; the Sun fundamentally remains in the middle of the solar system. The Sun APPEARS to rise, because the Earth is spinning; the Sun (and Moon, and stars, and everything else) seem to rise in the East, because the Earth is spinning from west to east. The Earth spins west-to-east once every 24 hours.
