Solution

The correct option is C Noon
When the Prime Meridian of Greenwich has the sun at the highest point in the sky, all the places along this meridian will have mid-day or noon. Local time can be reckoned by the shadow cast by the sun, which is the shortest at noon and longest at sunrise and sunset.
