Answers
Important properties of meridians are- they all meet at the poles, the distance decreases as we go from the equator towards the poles, the distance between any two meridians is longest at the equator which is near about 11km, all meridians are of same length and are semi circles.
The relation between time and longitudes are that for one degree of change there is a four minute interval and the east is always ahead of time.
