The Planet Quiz Show  


Answer:  The sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
 
For Teachers:

More technically, this only occurs on the first day of spring and fall. During winter in the Northern Hemisphere, the sun rises to the south of east and sets to the south of west. In summer, the rising and setting positions of the sun are to the north of east and to the north of west, respectively. For The Planet Quiz Show, the sun rising in the east and setting in the west will be an acceptable answer with no further clarification.
