Question

It is 3:00 PM at 150east longitude. What time is it at 0Prime Meridian?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

natural points of reference, i.e. North and South Poles. They form

the basis for the geographical grid. A network of intersecting lines is

drawn for the purpose of fixing the locations of different features.

The grid consists of two sets of horizontal and vertical lines, which

are called parallels of latitudes and the meridians of longitudes.

Horizontal lines are drawn parallel to each other in east-west

direction. The line drawn midway between the North Pole and the

South Pole is called the equator. It is the largest circle and divides

the globe into two equal halves. It is also called a great circle. All the

other parallels get smaller in size, in proportion to their distance

from the equator towards the poles and divide the earth into two

unequal halves, also referred to as the small circles. These imaginary

lines running east-west are commonly known as the parallels of

latitude.

The vertical lines running north-south, join the two poles. They

are called the meridians of longitude. They are spaced farthest apart

at the equator and converge at a point at each
