Question

1. Latitude and longitudes help in calculating a time. 2. Rotation is primarily responsible for causing tides. ​

Answer 1

Parallel is the 2 latitude and longitidye

Answer 2

Answer:

Ans1: Every gain or loss of 1° longitude stands for 4 minutes. 360° implies one complete rotation of earth. on every longitudinal degree increase towards west, substract 4 min. After the hours is calculated add(if east) or substract( if west) it with time of GMT.

Ans2:The moon, however, influences tides the most. The moon's gravitational pull on the earth is strong enough to tug the oceans into bulge. If no other forces were at play, shores would experience one high tide a day as the earth rotated on its axis and coasts ran into the oceans' bulge facing the moon.
