Question

why is the difference between the durations of day and night hardly felt at Kannyakumari but not so in Kashmir???

Answer 1

This is because of the latitudes of the two places. As the Earth's axis is tilted, sunlight reaches different parts of the Earth differently. Kanyakumari lies near the equator, so it receives sunlight equally throughout the year. Kanyakumari is located closer to the equator and experiences a maximum difference between day and night of 45 minutes. However, Kashmir lies further away from the equator and experiences a significant gap between the duration of day and night that can extend to as much as 3 and 1/2 Hours.

Answer 2

This is due to the LATITUDES of these two places.

The places located in the equator experiences almost equal duration of day and night.......and also the difference between day and night is very small since duration of day and night are equal.


KASHMIR is located near the equator and therefore the difference between day and night is low there.

But KANYAKUMARI is a little farther to the equator and therefore there is a much difference in day and night.
