On which day P is zero?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. D3.

For the one whose value of T will be 12, the value of P will be 0.

For D1, T = 17.30 - 05 : 44 

⇒ T = 11 hours 45 minutes

For D2, T = 17 : 15 - 05 : 42 

⇒ T = 11 hours 33 minutes

For D3, T = 17 : 36 - 05 : 36 

⇒ T = 12 hours

Hence the required answer is D3.
