If the time at Singapore (1°N, 100°E) is 3:20 AM, what will be the
time at Paris (50°N, 2°E)?
Answers
Answer:
5:55AM
Explanation:
1 minute=4 minutes
so difference between 50°-2°=48
48X4=192 minutes
so
3:20+192 minutes=5:55
Answer:
The time at Paris will be 8:48 PM
Explanation:
Given:-
Time ar Singapore (1°N, 100°E)
We know that
Earth rotates 360°/24 hours
Therefore,
Earth rotates 15°/hour
Here,
Earth rotates 1°/4 minutes
Time we counted on longitude
At 100°E from Greenwich, where Sun passes exactly overhead, time will be 400 mins I.e. 6 hrs and 40 mins ahead from Greenwich.
If at Singapore, time is 3:20 AM, then at Greenwich, the time will be
= 3:20 AM - (6hrs + 40mind)
= 8:40/PM
Also,
the longitudinal difference from Greenwich go Paris is 2°E
Hence time in Paris will be = 8:40 PM + 2°E
= 8:40 + 2 × 4
= 8:40 + 8
= 8:48 PM
