3. The sun rises two hours earlier in Arunachal Pradesh as compared to Gujarat in the west but the watches show the same time. How does this happen?

Answer:.

The latitudinal and longitudinal extent of India is about 30°. The east-west extent is

smaller than the north-south extent. There is a time lag of two hours from Gujarat to

Arunachal Pradesh. As Arunachal Pradesh lies to the eastern side of India, the sun rises

here earlier when compared to Gujarat. The time along the Standard Meridian of India

(82°30’E) passing through Mirzapur (in Uttar Pradesh) is taken as the standard time for

the whole country. The latitudinal extent influences the duration of day and night, as

one moves from south to north. Therefore, the watches show the same time in all the parts of the country.
