“The sun rises in the East and sets in the West.”
Why this is true?
None of the above is true.
The sun spin-axis orbits in the same plane.
The sun rotates clockwise.
This is due to the tidal effects the Sun has on Earth's rotation.
Earth rotates east in prograde motion. From the north pole, Earth turns counter clockwise.
