Question
5 think about a compass. if you are facing south, your right shoulder is west and your left shoulder is east. in what direction did you first see the sun in the morning? as you turned, in what direction did the sun seem to move throughout the day? i started to see the sun going east.
ep 6 based on your observations, why does the sun appear to move across the sky?
The sun rises in the east, so the first - seen direction in the morning is east. Due to Earth's west - to - east rotation, the sun appears to move from east to west during the day. The apparent movement of the sun across the sky is because the Earth rotates on its axis from west to east.
