Answer:
The time at 35°E longitude is 11am.
Explanation:
Longitudes run vertically around the earth from 90° North pole to 90° South pole.
And there are in total 360 longitudes.
Earth takes 24 hours to complete one rotation i.e., earth takes 1440 minutes to complete one 360°.
So, the time taken to travel one degree is
Thus, there is a 4minutes of distance between two longitudes.
Now given the time at 5°E longitude is 9am.
To find the time at 35°E longitude, let us find the difference between the longitudes.
so,
Thus, the time difference is
.
Then, the time at 35°E longitude is
Therefore, the time at 35°E longitude is 11am.
