Different place !! Different time !!

-


Different places have different types. This can understood easily. Earlier people used to understand the time of the day simply by looking at the sun’s position. When it is at 90° above the head, it is a 12’0 clock in the afternoon and so on. 

But as soon as trains came into existence, people started travelling to far away distances from their local area. And it became a problem for adjusting time while moving from one timezones to another. Hence, the need to create a standard time for all emerged. So, countries or large territories began to follow a standard time zone.


But how will we create a standard time zone?? The answer to the post will be given in the next post. So stay tuned till then.🙂🙂

The answers to Rahul's and Jane's questions boils down to one thing - TIMEZONES. A timezone is a place/location on the Earth, where all the people of that area set their watches to the same time or in other words all the people of an area on the Earth follow a particular time. There are a total of 24 timezones on the Earth, divided by the longitudes. But why do we need a timezone?? And follow different time for different places?? Stay tuned for the reasons.☺️☺️
