Question

Write briefly about any two historical sundials that still exists in India

Answer 1

Explanation:

A sundial is a device that indicates time by using a light spot or shadow cast by the position of the Sun on a reference scale.[4] As the Earth turns on its polar axis, the sun appears to cross the sky from east to west, rising at sun-rise from beneath the horizon to a zenith at mid-day and falling again behind the horizon at sunset. Both the azimuth (direction) and the altitude (height) can be used to create time measuring devices. Sundials have been invented independently in every major culture and became more accurate and sophisticated as the culture developed
