The earth completes a full revolution around its own axis approximately every 24 hours. This causes the strength of the sun to vary throughout the day as it arcs through the sky, rising in the East and setting in the West. The strength of the sun's rays peak when it is at the top of its arc between East and West at around 12:00.
