What else can I help you with?
Do lines of longitude have anything to do with time?
yes it does hve something to do with time
Are latitude lines used to determine time zones?
It's the lines of longitude which are used to define time zones, not lattitude.
Which Time Zone includes 2200W longitude?
There is no such longitude. The maximum degrees for lines of longitude is 180 east and west only.
Do the time zones always follow the lines of longitude?
yes
Why most time zones follow the prime meridian not the lines of longitude?
The prime meridian is a line of longitude
What time is it at the north pole?
As all the lines of longitude meet there, it is impossible to calculate time there.
What is the importance of the prime meridian?
The prime meridian, located at 0 degrees longitude, serves as the starting point for measuring longitude around the globe. It helps establish standardized time zones and provides a reference point for navigation and mapping. It also divides the Earth into Eastern and Western Hemispheres.
Why is determining latitude easier than longitude?
Longitude proved more difficult to determine because longitude was based in the concept of time, making clocks an important variable in navigation. The time and distance in addition to the use of the sextant for latitude proved more difficult than measuring the latitude.
What do longitude lines have to do with time?
There are 24 time zones. The Earth is 360 degrees around the circumference. So, for every 15 degrees of longitude there is one time zone.
What do lines of longitude tell us on a map?
Lines of longitude tells us where we are in relation to the Prime Meridian, either to the west or east.For an exact position on Earth, both lines of latitude and longitude (in degrees plus minutes and seconds) are used.
Is latitude the basis for establishing time zones?
Time Zones are based on lines of Longitude - with detours to avoid land.
What was the earliest device for measuring time?
The sun and its rise and set gave the very first time lines.
