How long will the sunrise and sunset take if the sun were a red giant?

How do you tell when it is sunrise and sunset?

Generally, if it is dark outside and it gets lighter, the Sun is rising. If it's bright outside and then it gets dark, that was sunset. Officially, "sunrise" is when the upper limb of the Sun comes into view on the horizon, and "sunset" is when the upper limb of the Sun disappears behind the horizon.


When observed from sunrise to sunset the length of the shadow will?

The length of the shadow will be longest at sunrise and sunset, and shortest at noon when the sun is at its highest point in the sky. This is because the angle of the sun's rays hitting the object casting the shadow is more oblique at sunrise and sunset, creating a longer shadow.

Is it you can see sunrise and sunset at the same place?

No, it is not possible to see the sunrise and sunset at the same place in a single day. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west due to the Earth's rotation. However, during certain times of the year in polar regions, there may be phenomena like the midnight sun where the sun is visible at midnight, but this is not simultaneous with sunset.

How can it be sunrise and sunset at the same moment?

For two antipodal locations (on opposite sides of the Earth) it will be sunrise for one when it is sunset for the other.Also, on the winter solstice, areas very near the North Pole or South Pole may experience a "day" of only a few minutes length, with sunrise quickly becoming sunset and the Sun never leaving the horizon. At the Poles themselves, the period from sunrise to sunset, and sunset to sunrise, is 6 full months.


What happens to shadows at sunrise and sunset?

At sunrise and sunset, shadows are longest because the sun is low on the horizon. As the sun rises or sets, the light is more spread out, leading to elongated shadows. This effect is due to the angle of the sun's rays hitting the Earth's surface.
