Answer 1

Answer:

Solar Hour Angle (HR) is the angular displacement of the sun from Longitude = 0o (Greenwich, London, UK). The earth rotates 360o around it's axis (there are 360 degrees of longitude lines) in 24 hours. So one hour = 360/24 = 15 degrees of longitude lines and one degree longitude = 60 minutes / 15 degrees = 4 minutes.
