Answer 2

Given : Sam’s stays on 45֯E meridian.

It is 2pm at Sam’s place.

His friend Harry stays on 50֯ E meridian.

To Find :  What will be the Local time at Harry’s place

Solution:

360 deg longitude = 24 hours

=> 1 deg longitude = 24 / 360 hr  = 1/15  hr  = 4 mins

Prime meridian follows GMT  is at 0  deg longitude

East is ahead of GMT  &  West lags GMT

45֯E meridian  => 45 * 4 = 180 mins ahead of Prime meridian

50֯ E meridian => 50 * 4 = 200 mins ahead of Prime meridian

Hence 50֯ E meridian is 200 - 180 = 20 mins ahead of 45֯E meridian

Time at   45֯E meridian is 2PM

Hence Time at   50E meridian is 2 : 20 PM

Local time at Harry’s place is 2 : 20 PM
