Question

Distinguish between:-

1.Local time and standard time
2.Tropic of cancer and tropic of Capricorn
3.Parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Local time implies the time of a place determined on the basis of apparent movement of the sun. Standard time refers to the fixed time for places falling in the same meridian, set in a country by law.

2. The Tropic of Capricorn is the circle of latitude that contains the subsolar point at the December solstice. It is thus the southernmost latitude where the Sun can be seen directly overhead. It also reaches 90 degrees below the horizon at solar midnight on the June Solstice.

3. All parallel circles from the equator to the poles are known as parallels of latitudes. The lines of reference running from the North Pole to the South Pole are known as meridians of longitude.
