ANSWER:

Step 1. The earth takes 4 min to rotate through 1 degree of longitude.

Step 1. The earth takes 4 min to rotate through 1 degree of longitude.Hence, the earth will take 240 minutes to rotate through 60 degrees of longitude ( 60×4)

Step 1. The earth takes 4 min to rotate through 1 degree of longitude.Hence, the earth will take 240 minutes to rotate through 60 degrees of longitude ( 60×4)Or the earth will take 4 hours to rotate through 60 degrees of longitude. ( 240/60)(since 1 hour=60 minutes).

Thus, we can say that the difference in time between the places lying on 60 East longitude and prime meridian(0 degree) is 4 hours.

Step 2. As the prime meridian lies towards the west of 60 degree east longitude, so the GMT will be 4 hours behind to the local time at 60 degree east longitude i.e. 8A.M in the morning.( 12P.M _ 4 hours)

s the prime meridian lies towards the west of 60 degree east longitude, so the GMT will be 4 hours behind to the local time at 60 degree east longitude i.e. 8A.M in the morning.( 12P.M _ 4 hours)Step3: Now we need to find the difference in time between the places lying on 30 degree west longitude and prime meridian i.e.(30×4 = 120 minutes or 2 hrs.(120/60).

hence hence the difference in time between the places lying on prime meridian(0 longitude) and the places lying on 30 west longitude in 2 HOURS.

As the places lying on 30 West longitude light towards the west prime meridian, so the local time at 30 West longitude will be 2 hours behind the time at prime meridian.

THUS, THE LOCAL TIME AT 30 WEST LONGITUDE WILL BE 6 a.m IN THE MORNING (8.a.m_2 hours).
