In the northern hemisphere.....south, since we're in winter during January, which means the northern hemisphere is angled away from the sun.

And harry is mistaken: the transition is called an equinox, which takes place once in September and again in March, not Jan 1.

the sun always rises in the east. But as the seasons change the sun will be in different hemispheres.

in the summer months in North America (above the equator) the sun is in the northern hemisphere and in the winter months the sun is in the southern hemisphere

I hope that helps

It depends on your latitude/longitude. To be scientifically correct - you should answer that the sun does not rise at all. The Earth has rotated so that the sun is now visible to us again in our location.

South, since its orbit is below the equator

LOL....

This is a trick question....if its in the first week of January, usually its dead on- NEITHER....

This is becuase the Earth is making its transition and the angle of orbit makes its on an even keel !!!!
