- Days in summer are usually longer than days in winter due the relative position of the sun and earth during different seasons of the year.

Answer:
Sun rises in the East.
It sets in the West.
The Sun takes a longer time to set in the West during summer.
Explanation:
- The Earth rotates around its axis, which is an imaginary line that travels between the North and South poles through the centre of the planet. This implies that the Sun appears to rise in the east in the morning and ascend higher and higher in the sky towards midday to us here on the spinning Earth.
- The Sunsets in the West because Earth spins towards the East.
- During the year, as the Earth circles the Sun, half of the Earth receives more or less sunlight than the other half. The northern half of the Earth, where we dwell, tilts towards the Sun during the summer months. As a result, we get more sunlight and the days are longer.
Hence, the Sun rises in the East and sets in the West, it takes a longer duration to set in summers.
