Its the same phenomenon that the moon shares, where people believe it is larger or smaller from time to time. It is an illusion, they are not.
They appear to be larger when closer to the horizon (morning for the sun) because it appears closer the ground, the trees and buildings around us, they appear closer and therefore larger. Up high, where is next to it to relate to, they appear further away, and therefore smaller.
The reason is The angle of rays.. In morning the sun is angled at almost 180 degrees.. But in the midday the sun comes to directly perpendicular to our head when we stand on the earth.. It's normally agreed with the Newton's ancient physics.. It does not matter todays...
The Sun appears smaller in the evening compared to the morning due to an optical illusion called the "Moon Illusion." This illusion is caused by our brain perceiving the Sun as farther away when it is near the horizon, which makes it appear smaller. Additionally, atmospheric conditions such as dust and haze can scatter sunlight, making the Sun dimmer and thus seeming smaller.
Many stars are larger than our Sun, many are smaller.
Luna, our moon, is thousands of times smaller than planet Jupiter, millions of times smaller than the Sun, and trillions of times smaller than the Milky Way galaxy.So Luna is the smallest of the 4 objects you named.
The sun would look much smaller than it does from Earth but still bright.
A shadow. It is smaller at midday when the sun is directly overhead, and longer in the late afternoon as the sun starts to set.
because intensity of rays is more in afternoon
The Sun is in the West of the sky in the afternoon, so it's facing East.
Morning is cooler then hotter in the afternoon because the sun has not made its way from our horizon into the sky, and by the time it takes the sun to reach the highest point in the sky ( where it will generate the most heat ) it is already the afternoon.
Morning
Sun!
means when the sun is low on the horizon -- early morning or late afternoon.
depends, weather it is morning in afternoon
We feel HOT in after noon and pretty cool in morning because is noon rays of the sun are fall directly on earth surface whereas sun rays fall slantingly in Early morning
Early in the morning, the sun's rays are not that direct and the heat thus received is not as much as when in the afternoon when the sun's rays are direct. Besides, the morning air takes time to heat up.
Morning: The shadow will be the longest and facing the west as the sun rises in the east Noon: The shadow will be the shortest as the sun is directly above the object Afternoon: The shadow will be slightly longer and facing east as the sun is going to set in the west soon.
A vegetable garden generally requires at least 6 hours of sunlight per day, so either morning or afternoon sun can work for optimal growth. However, morning sun is often preferred as it helps to dry dew off the plants, reducing the risk of diseases.
