Because the Earth's rotation direction is from west to east, the sun as seen rises from the east.
-
Because the earth turns from west to east.
-
Because the rotation of the earth (the earth itself revolves around the earth's axis) is counterclockwise.
Props: Flashlight, globe (or spherical objects such as basketballs, footballs, watermelons, etc.).
Place the globe on the table and shine it from the side with a flashlight. Turn the globe counterclockwise (counterclockwise means that when you look down from above, in the opposite direction of the clock, you can place a clock next to it).
Now observe if the right part is shining with light first, and then slowly move to the left. (The top side represents the north, the bottom side represents the south, the left side represents the west side, and the right side represents the east side).
That is to say, (the idea goes back to the real earth, back to our villages and cities), it is always the east where the sun is seen first, and then the west, so the sun that people see always rises from the east.
If it's still hard to understand, think about it, if an ant were standing on the globe you just had, in which direction would they think the flashlight was rising? Of course, it rises from the right side of the globe (i.e., east), slowly reaches the sky (the direction away from the center of the earth is called above), and then slowly reaches the left side of the globe (i.e., west).
Note: This has nothing to do with the direction of the Earth's revolution (i.e. around the Sun).
-
This is due to the rotation and relative motion of the earth, the rotation of the earth is from west to east, the distance between the earth and the sun is farther, it can be understood that the sun is stationary, so the sun we see every day is rising from the east.
-
First of all, we must make a premise clear, that is, the sunlight is parallel light, because the distance between the earth and the sun is 150 million kilometers, so far, such a large sun rays, we generally regard it as parallel rays. If you look at it as a parallel light, then, when the sun rises from the northeast in one place, the sun rises from the northeast everywhere else where the sun rises and sets.
We usually say that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, which is a rough statement, but in fact, only when the sun hits the equator on the equinox, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west on the equator, and the whole world rises in the east and sets in the west. Strictly speaking, on the equinox, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
When the direct point of the sun is directly in the northern hemisphere, the sun rises due east and northeast, i.e., northeast, and sets due west and north, i.e., northwest. Globally.
When the direct point of the sun is directly in the southern hemisphere, the sun rises due south, i.e., southeast, and sets due west, i.e., southwest. Globally.
Final summary: The sun shines directly in the northern hemisphere, the sun rises in the northeast and sets in the northwest; The sun shines directly in the southern hemisphere, rising from the southeast and setting from the southwest. On the equinox, the sun rises due east and sets due west. On the second solstice, the visual distance is greatest when the sun is north-south.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west has nothing to do with revolution! It is related to the revolution and the season.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west due to the rotation of the earth, and the earth rotates counterclockwise from the north pole, so it rises in the east, and Venus rotates opposite to the earth, so the sun comes out from the west there!
-
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, which is a natural sight on earth, not the sun rising from the east and setting from the west. Rather, the Earth always revolves from west to east around the Sun. Since the reference is the earth, we think that the earth is immobile and that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
-
Because it has to do with the rotation of the Earth from west to east.
On Earth it rises from the east, and the other planets in the solar system except Venus rise from the east because they rotate and revolve from west to east like the Earth. On Venus, however, it rises from the west, because its self-revolution is from east to west.

Strictly speaking.
The sun does not rise.
This is caused by the revolution and rotation of the earth.
The Earth's revolution changes in months.
The rotation of the Earth changes the day.
Since the Earth's rotation is from west to east around its axis of rotation (i.e., the Earth rotates counterclockwise as seen over the Northern Hemisphere).
So the sun that you see in a corner of the earth is rising from the east.
Because of the revolution too.
The distance of the earth from the sun is different.
The direct point of the sun is also different.
So you will find that the sun rises at a different time in the summer than in the winter (what you see in China is that the sun rises earlier in the summer).

Nature. And humans define the direction in which the sun sets as west. >>>More
The sun is not moving, the earth revolves around it, and at the same time the earth is also rotating, the earth is rotating from west to east, so it feels like the sun is rising from the east. >>>More
The east is just a matter of feeling, because the earth is round and defines a direction as southeast, northwest, and when the earth rotates from west to east, the east turns to the sun earlier, and there is no sun that turns to the sun first. >>>More
In addition to revolving around the Sun, the Earth also rotates from west to east. Since people live on the earth, they often do not feel this movement of the earth, but feel that all the celestial bodies revolve around the earth from east to west. The earth rotates once from west to east, and people on the earth think that the sun and other celestial bodies circle the earth from east to west. >>>More
It is impossible to exist, because the direction of rotation of the earth is from west to east, and the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and it is impossible for humans to change this phenomenon.
