Why does the sun rise in the east and set in the west but not the north and south?
I'm curious, why does the sun rise in the east and set in the west but not the north and south?
The sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis from west to east. As the Earth rotates towards the east, it gives the impression of the sun rising from the east and when the Earth moves away from the sun towards the west, it appears as if the sun is setting in the west.
