In the horizon coordinate system altitude-azimuth how many degrees does a star at the celestial equator move in 1 hour and how many arcseconds does the star move in 1 second of time?
A star at the celestial equator will move 15 degrees in altitude per hour, and 15 arcseconds in 1 second of time. This is because the celestial equator intersects the celestial sphere at 90 degrees from the north and south celestial poles, so the stars appear to move in circles around the celestial poles.
Explain how time changes as you move east from the Prime Meridian?
As you move east from the Prime Meridian, time increases by one hour for every 15 degrees of longitude you cross. This is because Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, so each hour represents 15 degrees of longitude.
If there are 360 degress of longitude around the earth and there are 24 times zones how many degrees does each time zone cover?
360 degrees / 24 timezones = 15 degrees per timezone
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.
How many degris is Mercury?
Mercury is 400 degrees in the day time and minus 180 degrees at night time
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.
How many degrees will the minute hand move to show a time of 1256?
It will move no degrees to show a time of 1256 since as soon as it does move it will no longer show a time of 1256.Perhaps that wasn't the question you meant to ask.Did you mean: how many degrees will the minute hand move past the hour of 1200 to show a time of 1256?In this case the minute hand makes 1 full revolution, or 360o every hour or 60 minutes.Thus it will move 56/60 x 360o to get to 1256 from 1200, ie 336o.If this is not your question, please post a rephrased question.
How much time is needed to make a sundial move a ten degrees?
The time needed for a sundial to move ten degrees depends on the specific location and time of year due to the changing position of the sun in the sky. Generally, it can take about 40-60 minutes for a sundial to move ten degrees.
How many degrees would the minute hand on a clock move in 1 minutes?
6 degrees, because 360 deg in a circle and it moves 1/60 at a time. 360/60 is 6 degrees.

How many degrees are in each standard time zone?
There are 15 degrees of longitude in each standard time zone
Will an engine start if it is 180 degrees out of time?
Assuming we are talking about the distributor, no it won't start unless you also move the wires on the cap 180 degrees.
How do you enter your nintenodog in more than 3 competitions a day?
Move the time forward to the next day on your DS.
How many degrees of latitude in a time zone?
15 drgrees
How many degrees is a triangle?
If you add up the degrees of all the angles in a triangle, it adds up to exactly 180 degrees every time.
How many degrees apart are time zones?
Approximately 15 degrees apart. It would be exactly 15 degrees, but politics gets in the way.
