NCERT Class 6th Social Science The Earth: Our Habitat Ch 2 Globe: Latitude and Longitudes

Answer 1

see 5:30 in india and 12:00 noon in london because earth as we know it ,is spherical in shape and to understand this you can place a ball in front of a torch . as you see the light falls only on a part of the ball. same way sun light falls only on a part of earth . as a result
when there is 5:30 in india there is 12:00noon in London

Answer 2

India and the United Kingdom lie on different longitudes. Each degree of longitude corresponds to a difference of 4 minutes. The standard meridian of India is 82 . 5 ° East and that of London is 0°. This means 4 minutes × 82 . 5 ° = 330 minutes. So when it is 12 noon in London, it is 5:30 p.m. in India.
