उत्तर
The duration of twilight at a place depends on the path of the Sun in the sky. In the low latitudes, where the Sun’s path is almost vertical, the duration of twilight is short. The Sun sinks below the horizon rapidly. In the middle and high latitudes the duration of twilight is long because at these latitudes the Sun has an inclined path.
