Question

Differentiate between the following :-
a) Parallel and meridian
b) Longitude and latitude
c) Standard time and local time
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The parallel circles from the equator to the north and south poles are termed as parallels of latitude. As opposed, the lines of reference, running from the two poles is known as meridians of longitude. ... The parallels of latitude are of unequal length, whereas the meridians of longitude are of equal length.

Answer 2

A) parallels and meridian.

parallels

— all parallels are complete circle except 90 degree not 90 degrees South vichar points.

— the equator is the largest parallel and other parallel decreases when one moves away from the equator towards pole.

Meridians

— length of all Meridian each one in semicircle.

— east of the Prime Meridian up to 180 is in the Eastern hemisphere west of the Prime Meridian of 28 in degre the local time of the standard Meridian is called Standard Time e west in the Western hemisphere.

2) Local time and Standard Time.

local time☺☺

— the local time at remind accordering the longitude of the place is called local time.

Standard Time

— the local time of the standard Meridian is called Standard Time.

3) latitude and longitude.

Latitude

— latitude is the distance of a place North and South Pole to the equator.

— the equator is starting line of the latitude.

Longitude

— the longitude is the distance of place in East and West Of The Prime Meridian.

— the Prime Meridian is taken as the starting line of longitude.
