needs answer to this question
The latitudinal extent influences the duration of the day and night, as one moves from South to North. As Kanyakumari lies close to the equator, the sun rays are felt more whereas Kashmir lies above the tropic of cancer, therefore sun rays are felt slanting towards the north of equator so the difference is felt more in kanyakumari than kashmir.
The mainland of India extends between latitudes 8*4'(Kanyakumari)and36*6'N(Kashmir).The latitudinal extend influences the duration of day and night as one moves from south to North.Hence the difference between the duration of day and night hardly felt in Kanyakumari but not so in Kashmir.
The distance from Kashmir to Kanyakumari is 2964 km.
Kanyakumari is just 8 degrees away from the equator. As equator receives the direct Sun rays, there won't be hardly any difference between the day & night. Where as, Kashmir is 37 degrees away from the equator. So there can be about 5 hrs difference between day & night

this is because kanyakumari is located near the equater and kanyakumari is in the tropical zone and kashmir is in the sub-tropical zone
In Kanyakumari, located near the equator, the duration of day and night remains relatively constant throughout the year, with minimal variation in daylight hours. In contrast, Kashmir, situated at a higher latitude, experiences significant changes in day length due to the tilt of the Earth's axis, leading to long summer days and shorter winter days. This variation is more pronounced in regions farther from the equator, making the difference in day and night lengths more noticeable in Kashmir than in Kanyakumari.
