Question

How does the earth rotation affect the direction sunlight rises and sets

Answer 1

The Earth's rotation affects the direction sunlight rises and sets by the Earth's rotation on its axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

It makes one complete turn every 24 hours. it turns towards east. As the Earth rotates toward east, it looks like the sun is moving west.

Answer 2

As Earth rotates on its axis, the different locations on Earth change position in relation to the Sun. A city on Earth that faces toward the Sun at noon will rotate to face away from the Sun 12 hours later. The positions of Earth and the Sun over the course of a 24-hour rotation cause sunrise, sunset, day, and night.
