1. Two places are located at longitudes 174 degrees and 87 degrees. What is the time difference between them?

  1. A6 hours 8 minutes
  2. B5 hours 52 minutes
  3. C5 hours 44 minutes
  4. D5 hours 48 minutes
उत्तर दिखाएँ

उत्तर: D

Time difference = Longitude difference x 4 minutes = 87 x 4 = 348 minutes = 5 hours 48 minutes (since the Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, i.e., 15 degrees per hour, or 1 degree per 4 minutes).

2. Two places are located at longitudes 108 degrees and 171 degrees. What is the time difference between them?

  4. D4 hours 12 minutes
उत्तर दिखाएँ

उत्तर: D

Time difference = Longitude difference x 4 minutes = 63 x 4 = 252 minutes = 4 hours 12 minutes (since the Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, i.e., 15 degrees per hour, or 1 degree per 4 minutes).
