. If it is 12 noon at 90 degree E longitude, then explain what would be the time at 30 degree W longitude?
Answers
Answer:
Local time of any place is determined by its longitudinal location. The time at 30° W longitude can be determined with reference to know the time at any given longitudinal location. Thus, if it is 12 noon at 60°E longitude, then time at 30° W longitude would be 6 AM.

1. Local Time and Standard Time
Answer
Local time of any place is determined by its longitudinal location. The time at 30° W longitude can be determined with reference to know the time at any given longitudinal location.
the difference in the longitudinal stretch with known reference = 60°E - 30°W =90°
Time is taken to travel longitudinal degree = 4 minutes
Time taken for 90° = 90*4 = 360 minutes = 6 hours
Thus, if it is 12 noon at 60°E longitude, then time at 30° W longitude would be 6 AM.
