QUESTION: How do longitudinal and latitudinal location influence the duration of day and night and time along the standard meridian of India?
ANSWER:
▶Latitudinal location-
◼The longitudinal extent of India is approximately 30°.
◼Earth takes 24 hours to cover 360 longitudes so, it takes 2 hours to cover 30°.
◼Hence there is a time lag of 2 hours between Gujarat and Arunachal Pradesh.
▶Longitudinal location-
◼As we move from the equator towards the poles, the duration of day starts to reduce.
◼So, days are longer in Tamil Nadu than Jammu and Kashmir.
