Question

State the reason for time lag between the sunrise on the easternmost and the

westernmost horizons of India.​

Answer 1

Answer:

India has a longitudinal extent of 30°. Due to this there is a time lag of two hours between the sunrise on the easternmost and the westernmost horizons of India. Due to rotation, the earth takes 4 minutes to rotate through 1° of longitude. The difference in time is one hour for 15° of longitude.

Answer 2

Answer:

The sun rises from the east. Japan is the westernmost country so it's the land of rising Sun. Similarly easternmost India is at the place from where Sun rises so eastern parts see the sun water then western parts.
