Why does sunrise come ahead of sunset?

Asked by Ivzkhe6316

Answer (1)

Answer:Sunrise doesn't actually come ahead of sunset. It's the other way around! Sunset always occurs after sunrise. The reason we perceive sunrise as coming "ahead" of sunset is because of how we describe the Earth's rotation.Therefore, sunrise always comes before sunset in any given location. The perception of sunrise "coming ahead" is due to the way we divide the Earth into time zones.
