QUESTION:-

The USA has 5 time zones give reason

ANSWER:-

The Reason For The Usa Having 5 Time Zones Is

  • In the 19th century railroads in America pursued many various time zones. Every station train lay its clock which made it hard to adapt train schedules and used to confuse passengers.

  • Calculation of Time became an important issue for people who used to travel by train and especially for people who used to travel hundreds of miles in a day so according to the Library of Congress, every city in the United States had their own different standard of time, which gave rise to more than 300 local sun-times to choose from.

  • The manager of the Railroad attempted to deal with the problem by creating 100 railroad time zones, but this was barely a proper solution to the situation.

  • Operators of the modern railroad lines had to make a new time plan that would deliver a uniform schedule of trains for departures and arrivals.

  • Five standard time zones for the United State of America continent were inaugurated on November 18, 1883.
