(2) CORRECTION FOR EQUATION OF TIME.—The sun does not move uniformly throughout the year, as we know from Table IX-c and Table XVII-A. Hence, for each day of the solar year, we have to apply a correction which depends on the day's equation of the centre. The correction for each day of the solar year on account of the equation of time is given in Table XIII and it is expressed, like the first correction, in seconds of time.
