east.​

Answer 1

Answer:

everyday the sun rises in the east and sets in the west

Answer 2

Answer:The sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

Explanation:As already noted, the Earth rotates on its axis as it circles the Sun. If viewed from above the celestial north, the Earth would appear to be rotating counter-clockwise. Because of this, to those standing on the Earth’s surface, the Sun appears to be moving around us in a westerly direction at a rate of 15° an hour (or 15′ a minute). This is true of all celestial objects observed in the sky, with an “apparent motion” that takes them from east to west.
