Detailed Solution

Jaipur has a higher annual range of temperature than Mumbai.
The surrounding water bodies have a moderating influence on the climate of the coastal areas. As the distance from the sea increases, the moderating influence decreases, resulting in extreme weather conditions. Mumbai is located on the west coast near the Arabian Sea. The water body influences the temperature of the place, which is the reason for lesser temperatures in the region. Jaipur in Rajasthan is located further to the north, away from the moderating influence of the water bodies. It results in higher temperatures in the region as compared to the coastal region of Mumbai. Thus, distance from the sea affects the temperature, and the annual temperatures increase going up the latitudes since the distance increases.
