1. The sun rises two hours earlier in Arunachal Pradesh as compared to Gujarat in the west. But the watches show the same time. How does this happen?
A. 1. Arunachal Pradesh is in the eastern most part of India.
2. Gujarat is in the Western most part of India.
3. The East West maximum distance of India is 3,000 km.
4. The time difference between Arunachal Pradesh & Gujarat is 2 hours.
5. To remove the time differences, the time is decided on a central meridian.
6. That is called Standard Meridian.
7. The time at 82½°east longitude is taken as Indian Standard Time.
8. Because of this reason, all the watches show the same time.
