Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Explanation:

The sun rises two hours earlier in Arunachal Pradesh as compared to Gujarat ,but still the watches show the same time , because the time along The Standard Meridian of India ( taken to be 82° 30′ E ) passing through Mirzapur has been taken as the standard time across the country.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

The latitudinal and longitudinal extent of the mainland is about 30°. Despite this fact, the east-west extent appears to be smaller than the north-south extent. From Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh there is a time lag of two hours. Hence, time along the Standard Meridian of India (82°30'E) passing through Mirzapur (in Uttar Pradesh) is taken as the standard time forthe whole country. The latitudinal extent influences the duration of the day and night, as one moves from south to north.
