Question

On the earth, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, Will it be the same on Venus?

Answer 1

Hint: Above concept is related to motion of earth. It does not depend on the motion of the sun. Remember the sun does not rotate. Earth is the one who rotates around the sun and also about its own axis.

Complete Step-by-Step solution:
Answer is no and why it is so we will see.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west because Earth spins from west to east. Planets have pro grade tilt rotation.
To understand this concept just consider one motion which is earth’s spin of its axis. For a while just ignore earth's orbit around the sun.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west because the earth spins west to east. If suppose you are facing east eventually the object in the sky turns, so that eastern horizon eventually comes up over the horizon. Compared to earth, the sun is not moving and earth is one who is moving from east to west. So at that time it seems like the sun is moving from east to west. But fact is quite the opposite. Because of earth's daily motion it is like the sun is rising from the east. And that is why the sun rises from the east and sets on the west. We can say that the earth rotates anticlockwise.
But Venus rotates clockwise, which is opposite to our normal solar system. Then what is the reason Venus rotates clockwise. Venus and earth are sister’s planet due to similarity in their sizes. Venus has retrograde rotation. It rotates from east to west. Spin of Venus is opposite to earth spin.

Note: Do not focus on the sun's motion. Students can apply concepts on earth’s motion. It will be a lot easier for you to understand this concept if you will consider only earth motion and rather consider relative motions of sun and earth. Venus and Uranus are the only one planet rotate clockwise.
