    Where will you expect maximum diurnal range of temperature?

    A)  Jaisalmer         

    B) Delhi

    C) Mumbai

    D)  Chennai

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Diurnal range of temperature is the difference between maximum temperature at day and minimum temperature at night. Jaisalmer is located in the western part of Rajasthan which is far away from the sea coast and is deprived of the moderating effect of the sea. Further, sand heats up and cools down more quickly than other rocks and soils. This leads to very high temperature during the day and very low temperature at night and results in high range of temperature at Jaisalmer.
