When it is 12 noon for a ship at sea and at the prime meridia it is 5pm what is the ship's longitude?
If it is 12 noon for a ship at sea and 5 PM at the prime meridian, there is a 5-hour difference in time. Since the Earth rotates 15 degrees per hour, a 5-hour difference corresponds to 75 degrees of longitude. Since the ship's time is earlier than the prime meridian's time, the ship is located 75 degrees west of the prime meridian. Thus, the ship's longitude is 75° W.
What is the approximate longitude of the Great Wall of China?
The great wall of china has no approximate or specific longitude you would have to break the wall into segments an calculate their individual longitude.
What is the longitude and latitude of King Tutankhamun's tomb?

How to calculate the longitude of a place when time is given?
You can calculate the longitude of a place when time is given using the Greenwich solar time.
What latitude and longitude gives us the time?
-- Latitude is not connected with the passage of time. -- The sun crosses 15 degrees of longitude per hour. So if you know your own longitude, somebody else's longitude, and what time it is over at his place, then you can figure out the solar time where you are. Really seems like a lot of effort and hassle, when you could just ask somebody what time it is, or look at your watch.
What longitude shows the time for Qatar?
Longitude: E 51° 11' 1.9824"
What is the solar time of 72 degrees W longitude if it is noon solar time at 90 degrees W longitude?
If it's noon solar time at 90 degrees W longitude, every 15 degrees of longitude represents a one-hour time difference. So, at 72 degrees W longitude, the solar time would be 2 hours behind (2:00 PM).
Which Time Zone includes 2200W longitude?
There is no such longitude. The maximum degrees for lines of longitude is 180 east and west only.
What is the longitude of world standard time?
The Prime Meridian, located in Greenwich, London, represents the 0° longitude for the world standard time, also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
What is the solor time of 72w longitude?
Local mean time at 72 degrees west longitude is UTC-4:48.
what is 1 degree longitude difference equivalent to change in time?
0 degrees longitude
Do lines of longitude have anything to do with measuring time?
yes... The longitude that the sun is directly over at any point in time is on average 15
How is time is associtated with each degree of longitude?
For each degree of longitude to the east, the local mean time is four minutes ahead.
How do you calculate time from latitude and longitude?
Take for example: 75°57′8″W, a line of longitude. We all know that lines of longitude measure the time zones. There are 360 degrees of longitude, and there are 24 hours in a day. Therefore, an hour would be 15 degrees longitude (360/24). 75° would be the number of degrees of longitude. If we take 75 and divide it by 15, we get the number of hours that we want, in this case, 5 hours. 57′ would be the number of minutes. 8″ would be the number of seconds. Sometimes, there are even milliseconds. They are the decimals after the number of
What is the longitude of a town if its local time is 6pm when greenwich time is 4pm?
The time difference between the local time and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is 2 hours. Since there are 360 degrees of longitude in a full circle and 24 hours in a day, each hour of time difference corresponds to 15 degrees of longitude. Therefore, the longitude of the town would be 30 degrees west of the Prime Meridian (Greenwich).
