1. What is a map, and how do we use it? What are its main components?

  • Map: A map is a drawing that shows the location of places on a flat surface, like a piece of paper.
  • Use: It helps us find directions and locations of cities, roads, rivers, etc.
  • Main Components:
    1. Distance: The scale tells us the real distance between places on the map.
    2. Direction: Maps show cardinal directions (North, South, East, West) to help us navigate.
    3. Symbols: Small drawings or signs represent important places like roads, rivers, and schools.

2. What are coordinates, and how can latitude and longitude mark locations?

  • Coordinates: They are like an address for any place on Earth, using two numbers: latitude and longitude.
  • Latitude: Imaginary lines running east to west, parallel to the Equator. For example, 29°N for Delhi.
  • Longitude: Imaginary lines running from the North Pole to the South Pole. For example, 77°E for Delhi.
  • Use: Together, they pinpoint the exact spot of a place on Earth, like coordinates on a chessboard.

3. How are local time and standard time related to longitude?

  • Local time depends on the position of the Sun and longitude. Each 15° longitude difference equals a 1-hour time difference.
  • Standard Time: Countries use a single time for the whole country, based on one longitude. For India, it is 5 hours and 30 minutes ahead of GMT, based on 82.5°E longitude.
