Question

what is the significance of Greenwich Mean Time​

Answer 1

hi friend,

here is your answer

DescriptionGreenwich Mean Time is the mean solar time at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London, reckoned from midnight. At different times in the past, it has been calculated in different ways, including being calculated from noon; as a consequence, it cannot be used to specify a precise time unless a context is given.

Answer 2

Answer:The time on the line of 0° longitude, which passes through Greenwich,

England, is used as a basic time throughout the world.

Q.10 If the time in London is 10.00 p.m. What will be the time on 60° East

longitude?

Ans - Time in London = 10.00 p.m.

As we know 1°=4 minutes

So 60°=60×4= 240 minutes=240/60hour (convert minutes into hours)

= 4 hours

Also, time increases when we move towards east from the Prime meridian

So the time at 60°E will be 10:00pm +4:00 hr = 2:00 am
