180° is half of a full rotation, so the answer is half of a day or twelve hours (ignoring the variables that contribute to the equation of time offset).
In almost exactly 24 hours.
The Earth rotates through 360 degrees longitude every 24 hours.
Every 15 degrees represent one hour. There are 360 degrees around the Earth. Divide 360 by 15 and you 24 - the number of hours in a day, and the time it takes the Earth to rotate on its axis.
There is no 200 degrees of longitude. There is 180 degrees west of the Greenwich Meridian and 180 degrees east of the Greenwich Meridian. All degrees of longitude on earth converge at the South and North Poles.
Roughly 4 minutes.

1 hour
20 minutes. The Earth rotates 360 degrees every 24 hours. So it rotates 15 degrees every hour, so 5 degrees is 1/3 hours or 20 minutes.
It locates a place through degrees
The Earth rotates at the rate of roughly 15 degrees of longitude per hour.
The Earth rotates at the rate of roughly 15 degrees of longitude per hour.
The Prime Meridian is at 0 degrees longitude and runs through Greenwich, England. It is considered the starting point for measuring longitude and separates the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.
