The difference in the duration of day and night increases as:

  • (A) One moves from West to East
  • (B) One moves from Poles to Equator
  • (C) One moves from East to West
  • (D) One moves from Equator to Poles
  • At the equator, the length of day and night is almost equal (about 12 hours) throughout the year since the region receives equal sunlight irrespective of the tilt of the Earth's axis.
  • As one moves away from the equator towards the poles, the latitude rises. This is because the Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of 23.5°, and as a result, the amount of sunlight received at different latitudes varies seasonally.
  • This variation is most pronounced at the poles, where the difference can be as much as 24 hours (midnight sun and polar night) .
  • The farther one is from the equator, the larger the difference between the length of day and night during the seasons.
