Why does the sun seem to move ?

Answer 1

It is just a reflection of the Earth's motion.

Answer 2

The sun only seems to move but in fact it does not. The rotation of the earth about its axis which is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees to the horizontal causes this sensation. We are in a position of rest as compared to the earth's motion on its axis so when the earth rotates we rotate along with it but the sun does not. Hence the sun seems to be moving but we move.

Answer 3

Earth is rotating about its own axis from west to east in approximately 24 earth hours. Because of this rotation all the celestial bodies including the SUN appear to have East to West motion for an observer on the earth.(Rising and setting)
earth also revolves around the SUN in approximately 365 earth days. This revolution around the sun is inclined at an angle of 23.5*. Becos of this the Sun appears to move from Northern hemoispher tpo south and then back.( Seasons)
The earth revolves in a elliptical orbit hence is nearest to Sun on around 1 of January(Perhellion) and furthest away aroynd end June every year(apphellion).
The suns movement near and further away is not discernable to ordinary observer but to astronemers.

Answer 4

The rotation of the earth around its axis causes the sun to appear to move. The sun isn't actually moving in relation to the earth, but the earth's rotation in an easterly direction causes the sun to appear to rise in the west every morning and set in the east every evening. The sun also appears higher in the sky during the summer and lower in the sky during winter, because of the earth's seasons caused by an axial tilt of 23.5 degrees.

Answer 5

According to astronomers, the reason why the Sun seem to be following us is because they are so far away. The Moon, for example, is about 240,000 miles away; the Sun about 93 million miles. And no matter how fast we drive, we just can't pass them.
When you drive by a stand of trees or a series of telephone poles near the road, you pass them very quickly. So you see roadside objects first ahead of you, then next to you, and finally behind you, receding into the rear-view mirror.
But when you drive (or stroll) by the Sun, it's a different story. Because the Sun is so far away, the angle you view it from will change very little as you move along. So mile after mile, the Sun will remain in roughly the same spot of sky. And just as you can't “pass” the Sun, neither can you shake the presence of Sun, planets, or stars. Even very distant mountain ranges appear nearly stationary as we drive by. And far-away farms and city skylines seem to move by very slowly.-

Answer 6

Hi! this is shama. the sun seems to move because we are moving. the earth rotates on its axis. that is the middle of the earth. that is what causes day and night. while it is rotating on itself, then the earth goes AROUND the SUN. the sun NEVER moves! i hope i helped you, and lots of luck

Answer 7

In some respects, it appears that the Sun circles the Earth. Greek philosophers speculated about our world and its geometry and decided that it is the Earth which is turning on its own, making things appear to swing past it, outside of it..

Answer 8

actually the sun remains in the same place but the earth is revolving around the sun rotating about itself so we feel that the sun is moving.

Answer 9

because we observe the Sun, a still object, when we are located on Earth, an orbital object about the Sun

Answer 10

because the earth moves

Answer 11

BECAUSE THE EARTH ROTATES AROUND THE SUN
