What 15 degree intervals devide the earth into 24 hours?

Degrees longitude. The intervals divided this way are the time zones.


What are the intervals of four times daily?

The intervals for 4 times daily would be every 6 hours. There are 24 hours in a day divide that by 4 and you get 6. 6x4 = 24


How much time does it take the earth to rotate at 60 degrees?

For Earth to rotate 60° will take four hours. Ish.Earth takes 24 hours (approximately) to rotate a full 360°. 60° is 1/6 of this, so divide the full 24 hours by 6 to get 4 hours.


How many degrees of longitude do you need to travel across to pass through one hour?

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.


The earth rotates 60degrees does in?

360 degrees is the intuitive answer, but it is not correct. The earth completes a 360 degree rotation in about 23 hours, 56 minutes and some odd seconds, which is the sidereal, or true, rotational period of the earth. I don't know the exact degrees in 24 hours, but it will be reasonably close to 361 degrees (roughly 1 extra degree per day to account for a full rotation over the course of a year).


If the Earth rotates through 360 degrees in 24 hours through what angle will the Earth rotate in 2 hours?

The Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, which means it rotates 15 degrees per hour (360 degrees / 24 hours = 15 degrees/hour). Therefore, in 2 hours, the Earth will rotate 30 degrees (15 degrees/hour x 2 hours = 30 degrees).


How many degrees does the earth turns if the tides rise or fall about every six hours?

The Earth rotates 15 degrees every hour, so in six hours it will have rotated 90 degrees.


What is the apparent hourly angular velocity of the stars as measured from Earth?

The Earth rotates every 23h56m; rounding this to 24 hours, you have a full rotation, or 360 degrees, every 24 hours. This is equal to 15 degrees per hour.The Earth rotates every 23h56m; rounding this to 24 hours, you have a full rotation, or 360 degrees, every 24 hours.

How many degrees does the earth rotate in 3 hour?

It rotated 15 degrees, because 360 divided by 24 is 15, and 15 times 3 is 45.


How many degrees are each minute an a clock?

12-3=90 degrees. Divide that by 3 (hours from 12-3) and you have 30 degrees per hour. Divide that by 60 minutes and you have 0.5 (1/2) degrees in a minute.


Why are the eons and eras not equal in length?

Geologists have divided Earth's history into a series of time intervals. These time intervals are not equal in length like the hours in a day. Instead the time intervals are variable in length. This is because geologic time is divided using significant events in the history of the Earth.
