The Sun is always shining and spreading its light on the Earth. But it cannot provide light on the entire Earth at the same time. The Earth is like a ball which is spinning on its axis. The side which faces the Sun receives Sunlight. The Earth keeps spinning and the Sun facing side later experiences evening and then night when that side has moved away from the Sun. Now the other side of the Earth is facing the Sun.
Explanation:
It is the Earth’s rotation and spinning that makes the Sun disappear at night.
It is the Earth's rotation and spinning that makes the Sun disappear at night.The Earth is like a ball which is spinning on its axis. The side which faces the Sun receives Sunlight. The Earth keeps spinning and the Sun facing side later experiences evening and then night when that side has moved away from the Sun. The planet is perfectly blocking the sun at night and the planet is too thick to see or feel any sort of warmth from the other side of the planet.
The sun stays in the center of the solar system. Our planet travels round it in a big ellipse, one circuit per year, but it also spins as it does so. At night your side of the Earth has spun so that it is facing away from the sun, so the sun is on the far side of the planet from you. You can’t see it because the planet is in the way, but you can still see a little bit of its light, bouncing off the moon

Temperature changes can also contribute to mechanical weathering in a process called thermal stress. Changes in temperature cause rock to expand (with heat) and contract (with cold). As this happens over and over again, the structure of the rock weakens. Over time, it crumbles.
