While the sun has risen in Arunachal pradesh, it is still dark in Gujrat. Why??

it is so bcoz A.P is located in east direction n  it recieves the very first slanting rays . whereas gujarat is in west and recieves  sun rays almost late bcoz of it's western most direction, as there is 300 longitudinal difference,

hope some how it will help u

because the longitudanal of gujarat is 68degree 7 east and the longitudanal of arunachal pradesh is 96 degree 6 east there is almost 30 degree of difference each degree denotes 4 min so 30 * 4 = 120 that is 2 hours thats why sun rises first in gujarat but it remains dark in gujarat

India has a longitudinal extended of 30 degree. There is a time lag of 2 hours. The earth takes 4 minutes to rotate through each longitude. Therefore, for it, it will take 2 hours rotate through 30 degrees. But the watches show the same time as India has choosen a common time zone based on standard meridian

Bcoz there is 2 he's difference in both regions but time is same bcoz Indian time is standard time for whole country and it occurs bcoz distance from equator

Arunachal Pradesh, being in the east most receives the first rays from sun...but Gujarat is in the west most state. So it will only get late rays from sun.

Well geet ...
Your answer is..
The sun first rises in arunachal pradesh as we know and sets in gujrat in india..so because of the geographical extent between arunachal and gujrat , the sun rises in arunachal first and the difference between them both latitude is 30mins. Thats why. .....hope you got your answer if yes,,then plz share and like

The Gujrat is in the west but Arunachal pradesh is in east and the sun risen in the east direction . So, thats why the sun risen in Arunachal pradesh, it is still dark in Gujrat
