Why is the day of Mount Everest shorter than the night compared with the sea level at the same latitude?
The reason is that the altitude of Mount Everest is more than 8000 meters higher than the sea level. There is a saying: If you stand high, you can see far, so it takes longer for Mount Everest to "see" the sun than at low altitude at the same latitude. Therefore, in comparison, the day at the top of Mount Everest is longer than the sea level at the same latitude, so the night is naturally shorter.
