Every meridian of constant longitude joins the Earth's north and south poles,
so the length of each meridian is 1/2 of the Earth's polar circumference.
Every meridian of longitude connects the same two points . . . the north and south poles.
Every meridian of longitude has nominally the same length, because they all connect the same two points ... the north and south poles.
The same as the total number of different lengths that can be measured on a3-foot ruler. If you name two longitudes, then no matter how close togetherthey are, I can always name another longitude that's in between yours. Sothere's no limit to the number of different longitudes that we can name.
If they did, then you'd have two different longitudes at the same point, which isgenerally a no-no.The only places where that happens is at the north and south poles, where all longitudesconverge (meet, come together).
The length of a country is determined by its longitudinal extent, which is the distance between its easternmost and westernmost points. The breadth, on the other hand, is determined by the latitudinal extent, which is the distance between its northernmost and southernmost points. While India's latitude and longitude may have the same numerical value, the Earth's shape causes a distortion in the lengths of these lines, resulting in the length being greater than the breadth.

as all the places on the same longitude have their noon at the same time

There are 360 longitudes

Every line of constant longitude joins the north and south poles. Therefore the length of every line of constant longitude is one half of the earth's polar circumference.
It is because as we move towards the poles, the extent between two longitudes decreases, that means they come closer and closer. This is however not the case with latitudes.Therefore though the numerical difference between latitudes and longitudes of India is same, it covers more land from North to South as compared to from East to West.

Every meridian of constant longitude joins the north and south poles, so its length is half of the Earth's polar circumference, or about 20,004 Km (12,430 miles).
there is no time difference between any two locations separated by x-amount of latitude as long as they are on the same longitude. When they are on different longitudes and separated by latitude count the number of longitudes between the locations to get the time difference
At the poles.
