The Sun is usually not seen after sunset, which is why it is called sunset. There is still light visible from the sun. However ther are certain atmospheric conditions that may make it appear as though one sees the sun after setting, but this would be concidered a reflection of sorts.

Why is total solar eclipse not seen from all parts of the globe?

A solar eclipse happens when the Moon covers the Sun.

What causes the Sun to appear to set earth's rotation or revolution?

The Sun appears to set due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth rotates from west to east, the Sun seems to move across the sky from east to west. This daily rotation creates the illusion of the Sun rising in the east and setting in the west, even though the Sun itself is not moving. The Earth's revolution around the Sun does affect the overall position of the Sun in the sky throughout the year, but the daily setting is primarily a result of rotation.
