What is between every two minutes of longitude?
There are 15 degrees of longitude between every two minutes of longitude. Each degree of longitude is divided into 60 minutes.
How many minutes does it take for the Sun to cross one degree of longitude?
The Sun travels around the Earth once every 24 hours. The Earth is divided into 360 degrees of longitude. Therefore, the Sun transits 15 degrees every hour (360 divided by 24). If it crosses 15 degrees in 60 minutes, it will cross one degree every 4 minutes (60 divided by 15).
What degree is the prime meridian at?
The Prime Meridian is at zero degrees longitude and every possible latitude.
Between every two degrees of longitude there are sixty?
minutes
When does the earth rotates through 360 degrees longitude?
The Earth rotates through 360 degrees longitude every 24 hours.

How many time zones ore there on the Earth?
the earth is divided into 24 time zones, each 15 degrees of longitude in width. Since earth rotates once every 24 hours on its axis and there are 360 degrees of , each hour of Earth rotation represents 15 degrees of longitude.
How many degrees is the longitude in the prime meridian?
The Prime Meridian is defined as the origin of longitude. The longitude of every point on it is zero.
What degree is the prime meridian at?
The Prime Meridian is at zero degrees longitude and every possible latitude.

Where do all longitude lines come together?
All longitudes converge at the north and south poles. To look at it another way,the north pole is located at 90 degrees north latitude and every longitude.
Degrees of the Prime meridian?
Zero longitude / Every possible latitude
What geographical features distinguish it?
15 degrees because for every 15 degrees of longitude that you move, you enter a new time zone. As you move west, you gain an hour; as you move east, you lose an hour. There are 360 degrees on the Earth, which divided by 24 hours in the day, give 15 degrees of longitude per time zone. You can calculate the time by knowing the longitude of two locations and a time at one of them. By measuring the difference in longitude and dividing it by 15, you arrive at the time of the second location.
Which longitude is at zero degrees?
Every point at that location has a longitude of zero. If you mark a dot at every point there, they form the line known as the "Prime Meridian".
How many degrees of longitude does the sun appear to move each hour if it moves 360 degrees in 24 hours?
360 divided by 24 equals 15. The sun appears to move 15 degrees each hour, or one degree every four minutes.
What line passes through Alaska?
