Answer:

  1. Standard Time: a uniform time for places in approximately the same longitude, established in a country or region by law or custom.
  2. Tropic of Cancer: The Tropic of Cancer, which is also referred to as the Northern Tropic, is the most northerly circle of latitude on Earth at which the Sun can be directly overhead. This occurs on the June solstice, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun to its maximum extent.
  3. Peninsula: A peninsula is a landform surrounded by water on the majority of its border while being connected to a mainland from which it extends. The surrounding water is usually understood to be continuous, though not necessarily named as a single body of water.
  4. Divergent : tending to be different or develop in different directions.
  5. Hemisphere: one half of the earth.
  6. Converging Plates: A convergent plate is an area on Earth where two or more lithospheric plates collide. One plate eventually slides beneath the other causing a process known as subduction. The subduction zone can be defined by a plane where many earthquakes occur, called the Benioff Zone.

Answer:

Standard time is the synchronization of clocks within a geographical region to a single time standard, rather than a local mean time standard. ... The standard time in each time zone has come to be defined as an offset from Universal Time.
