During summer, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, causing the sun to rise later and set earlier as it follows a shorter and lower path across the sky. This results in longer days and shorter nights during summer in the Northern Hemisphere.
The sun doesn't really rise and set. It only appears to do so. What is actually happening is due to the rotation of the earth. As the earth turns, the sun appears to rise, cross the sky and then set, after which there is darkness (night, when the part of earth where you are located is turned away from the sun).
