Case Study Based Questions Class 10 Exam 2021

CBSE has revised its syllabus this year in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the complete lockdown situation schools were closed and it affected the students the most. As a result, the board decided to reduce the syllabus this year. A new question pattern has been introduced as well. The Case Study Based Question is one of the new changes. Here is some Case Study based question to practice with.

Case Study Based Question 1:
Earth

Earth is a sphere and it has imaginary lines on it namely called latitudes and longitudes. Earth takes 24 hours(approx.) to rotate 360 degrees on its axis responsible for a day and a night. Indian Standard Time(IST) is calculated on the basis of 82.5°E longitude passes through the city of Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh. GMT is the time zone of London.
