Why do you have time zones?

Answer 1

We have time zones because the earth is constantly rotating on its axis. If every person set their clocks at the same time, midnight will be in one side of the globe, and daylight would be on the other side. To avoid this problem, we have time zones. These generally follow imaginary lines or longitudes running from the North Pole to the South Pole. There has been 24 different kinds of time zones and each of 15 degrees longitude and an hour apart from each other. Those on the east side are ahead one hour, and those who are on the west side are behind one hour.

Answer 2

Time zone maps are important because you need to know what the time will be if you're traveling somewhere, so that you can sleep earlier or later, depending on where you're going.

Answer 3

I think we have time zones because of the area that we are in

Answer 4

so that we can have different times for various places in the world according to sunset and sunrise

Answer 5

I don't have times zones but HUMANS have time zones because it is really a different time there. For ex: If you are in California and it is 6 it would be 8.
