Answer 1

Answer:

 when it is 12 noon at 60 Deg East it will be 6 hrs before 12 noon at 30 deg west. or 12–6=6AM at 30 deg

Answer 2

Since there are 24 hours in a day and 360 degrees in a circle, the sun moves across the sky at a rate of 15 degrees per hour (360° = 24 hours 15° per hour).To cover a distance of 1° (i.e., per longitude), the sun will take (60 = 15 =) 4 minutes. Thus, the time difference per longitude is 4 minutes.Now, between A and B, the number of longitudes is (90 - 15 =) 75. Thus, the time to cover 75 longitudes is (75 x 4 =) 300 minutes or (300 60 =) 5 hours.Now, since B (at 90W) is to the west of A (at 15W), time-wise, A is ahead of B, by 5 hours. So, if at A, the local time is 7 AM, the local time at B is (7-5 =) 2 AM.
