The animation indicates a shadow growing to the east, because (1) the sun is rising in the east. (2) the Earth rotates the same way. (3) the sun is setting to the west. (4) shadows point toward the sun

Remember…it moves at 15 o / hr

The diagram shows the apparent daily path of the Sun, as viewed by an observer at a certain latitude on three different days of the year.

Draw a line to represent the apparent path of the Sun from sunrise to sunset at Buffalo on May 21. On the path labeled March 21 Indicate the location of the Sun at 3PM With your sun at 3 PM on March 21, use a line to indicate the location of the shadow of the “Observer in Buffalo”. On the same sky model diagram place a at the apparent position of the North Star as seen from Buffalo.
