The Earth turns 40 degrees in 22/3 hours .
It goes right round 360 degrees in 24 hours, so 6 hours for 90 degrees, relative to the Sun. Relative to the distant stars, it takes the Earth about 5 hours, 59 minutes to rotate 90 degrees.
in one minute the earth spins 28km, so it spins 420km in 15 minutes
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).
According to some scientists publications the average speed of the earth rotation is about 30km/s, so 15 minutes has to be 27000km
The amount of daylight in a "24-hour" day actually varies due to a combination of the Earth's elliptical orbit around the sun and the tilt of the Earth's axis. The further north or south you are from the equator, the more variation you will see in the amount of sunlight you get in the winter and summer. For example, the year 2009 in Nome, Alaska (165 degrees West, 64 degrees North) there were 3 hours 53 minutes of daylight on December 21 and on and June 21, 21 hours 30 minutes of daylight; a difference of nearly 18 hours . Miami, Florida (80 degrees West, 25 degrees North) on those same days had 10 hours 32 minutes and 13 hours 43 minutes respectively; a difference of only about 3 hours.

2 hours 25 minutes, at 350 degrees. Don't forget to baste the bird, every forty minutes.
One hour and forty four minutes.
If both started at 12, in forty minutes, the minute hand would reach the 8 mark on the clock. The 8 mark symbolizes 8 hours past 12. So it would take 8 hours for the hour hand to travel as far as the minute hand travels in 40 minutes.

The road distance from Kilcoy to Hervey Bay is 253km. Travel time is around three hours and forty five minutes.
I believe there is an hour and 45 minutes because 75 means 3 quarters from a 100% and 45 means also 3 quarters from 60 (which are the minutes from an hour) .and therefore...1.75 hours equals an hour and 45 minutes
