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

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.


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

There are 24 time zones. Divide 360 degrees longitude by 24 and you get 15 degrees for each one-hour time zone.


Are there more than 180 degrees longitude?

If you travel all the way around the earth without touching the north or south pole, then you travel through 360 degrees of longitude. They're labeled (zero -- 180) east and (zero -- 180) west.


How many degrees of longitude would you pass through to fly from Helena to Ulaanbaatar?

Assuming that the question is referring to Helena, Montana . . . If you travel the short way from Helena to Ulaanbaatar, you cover 141 degrees of longitude.


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.


If you were to travel through an angle of 8 degrees across the surface of the earth through how many kilometers would you have traveled?

It depends on your latitude. At the equator (0 degrees) a degree of longitude covers just over 111 km, so 8 degrees would be about 890 km. At 45 degrees of latitude, a degree of longitude covers just under 79 km, so 8 degress would be about 555 km. Check out the calculator in the related link. Enter the degrees of latitude and it gives the length of a degree at that point.


Does longitude increase when you travel west of the prime meridian until 180 degrees?

Yes, longitude increases when traveling west of the prime meridian until it reaches 180 degrees. After passing 180 degrees longitude, the values start to decrease as you continue westward.


Calculate how many degrees of longitude you would travel if you traveled around earths equator twice?

All the way around anything is a trip of 360 degrees. If you do it again, your total doubles to 720 degrees.


What is the farthest point north anyone can travel?

How many degrees of longitude would you cross to travel halfway around the world?

180 degrees because a whole circle is 360!!!


If you were to travel along the 210 longitude line from Antarctica which would you reach?

A longitude of 210 degrees means that you are measuring longitude from 0 to 360 degrees, which is fine, but very often people use -180 to +180 degrees, also called 180 degrees west to 180 degrees east instead. 210 degrees longitude is the same as 150 degrees west. You would pass French Polynesia and you would then make a landfall in Alaska in the USA which is in North America.
