The sun doesn't move at all it's the earth that moves. The earth is slightly tilted on it's axis so the whole hemisphere gets the sun not only the center. The earth takes 23 hours 56 minutes and 4 seconds to rotate on it's axis that's how we see the sun moving through the sky. It travels from east to west throughout the day. At noon it is at the highest point. It is true that people living on the east see the sun rise before the people living more west side.

What direction does the Sun appear to move across the sky each day?
east 2 west
From what compass direction does the sun appear each morning?
The sun rises in the East and sets in the West.
Why do stars appear to move across the Earth's sky each night?
Stars appear to move across the Earth's sky each night due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis. As the Earth rotates from west to east, different stars become visible in the sky. This apparent motion is known as the diurnal motion of stars.
Why do the sun and the moon appear to move cross the sky each day?
The sun and the moon appear to move across the sky each day due to Earth's rotation on its axis. The sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west because of the Earth's eastward rotation. The moon also follows a similar path across the sky, as it orbits around the Earth.
Why do constellations not stay in the same place each night?
Constellations appear to move across the sky each night due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. This rotation causes the stars to appear as though they are moving, when in fact it is the Earth that is moving. This phenomenon is known as the diurnal motion of the stars.
In what direction does the sun appear to travel across the sky in each day?
Sun rises in the East and sets in the west. So it travels westwards during the day.
What direction does the Sun appear to move across the sky each day?
east 2 west
What direction does the moon appear to move across the sky each day?
east 2 west

How many cars travel across the London bridge each day?

Why does light travel in the same direction?
Light travels in a straight line because it is an electromagnetic wave, which means it consists of oscillating electric and magnetic fields perpendicular to each other and to the direction of travel. The interactions between these fields cause light to propagate in a uniform direction.
What is sap flux?
sap flowing across each cm2 of sapwood perpendicular to the direction of flow in unit time
What is a force that works opposite to the direction of travel?
A force that works opposite to the direction of travel is known as friction. Friction opposes motion between surfaces in contact with each other, causing resistance that slows down or stops the movement of an object.
From what compass direction does the sun appear each morning?
The sun rises in the East and sets in the West.
How is mirage created?
A mirage is when rays of light attempt to travel through different densities of air on top of each other. It travels slower in the thicker densities and faster in the thinner ones, and also may change direction. This confusion in direction and speed causes images to appear in the human eye, when in fact they are not there. Mirages are NOT the same as hallucinations; they are caused by drugs etc.
