The sun rises in the east.

No matter where you live, the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Depending on the date and on your latitude, the Sun may rise well north of east (in the summer) or well south of east (in the winter), but the general direction of sunrise is always east.
The opposite of sunrise is sunset. While sunrise marks the beginning of the day as the sun rises above the horizon, sunset signifies the end of the day when the sun descends below the horizon. Both events are characterized by changes in light and color in the sky, but they represent different transitions in the daily cycle.
Not if you stay at the same place to observe it. If you pick a star and observe it from the same place every night, you'll see it rise from the same exact spot on the horizon every night, but about 4 minutes earlier each night than on the previous night.
It is not the sun comes up and in mornin. Morning,evening,north,south,east,west,poles etc are all we subtitued . they are all named by us for our convinience. We assumed that when sun risses it is morning.okay.
The horizon seems to rise when watching it on a shore because the sun is moving down. To a person, it looks like the water is rising over the sun.
It is when the sun or moon breaks the horizon. And sunset and moonset happen when the last bit (trailing limb) goes below the horizon.

The optical illusion of the sun appearing to rise and set over the horizon is due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth spins, it creates the illusion that the sun is moving across the sky, when in reality, it is the Earth that is moving. This phenomenon is known as sunrise and sunset.
The past participle of the verb rise (to take an upright position) is risen.
Due east
At the North Pole, the Sun will rise above the horizon when spring starts, and it will set at the start of autumn.___________________________If you are at the north pole, then the Sun will rise about March 19, and set about September 23.I know, you expected to hear "March 21" and "September 21", right? Well, the fact is that the Sun's light is refracted around the Earth by the atmosphere; when we see the Sun peek over the horizon, it is ACTUALLY a couple of degrees BELOW the horizon! Celestial navigators have to apply a small correction to observations that are within about 15 degrees of the horizon.This leads to an interesting quirk; an observer at the south pole and an observer at the north pole will BOTH see the Sun as being just above the horizon!
Sunrise (and moonrise) is when the leading edge of the sun just breaks the horizon, and sunset is when the trailing edge of the sun just sinks below the horizon. Observations may differ slightly from calculated times, since air conditions will effect the bending of the light
Depending on the atmospheric conditions, when you see the Sun rise, it may actually be between about 1 and 4 degrees below the horizon, due to refraction in the atmosphere.Depending on the atmospheric conditions, when you see the Sun rise, it may actually be between about 1 and 4 degrees below the horizon, due to refraction in the atmosphere.Depending on the atmospheric conditions, when you see the Sun rise, it may actually be between about 1 and 4 degrees below the horizon, due to refraction in the atmosphere.Depending on the atmospheric conditions, when you see the Sun rise, it may actually be between about 1 and 4 degrees below the horizon, due to refraction in the atmosphere.
The sun rose gently over the eastern horizon.
When the sun sets over the horizon, we say that the day is coming to a close or that night is falling.
I gazed out at the horizon and watched the sun disappear beneath it. The ship sailed toward the horizon, fading into the distance. The mountains on the horizon looked majestic in the evening light.
