There is no standard set of "lines", so if you want to compare two "lines",
you have to specify which two you're talking about.
The Earth turns through 360 degrees of longitude in 24 hours. So every
15 degrees of longitude corresponds to one hour of rotation. If you want
the clock to read 12:00 Noon when the sun peaks in the sky everywhere,
then you have to change the clocks by one hour for every 15 degrees of
longitude.
It is instantaneous. A longitude is an idealised line and so infinitesimally thin. To go from one longitude to the next takes approx 15 minutes.
You're somewhere on the Prime Meridian ... the line between the north pole and the south pole through Greenwich UK. If we also knew our latitude, we could put a much finer point on it.
It would be somewhat easier to answer this question if I knew whether you're referring to the Memphis in Indiana, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, Tennessee, Texas, or one of the many of them outside the US. There haven't been any permanent residents of the ancient city of Memphis, Egypt, for over 1,400 years now. But its location is well known, much remains of its impressive temples and monuments, and the center of archaeological activity to uncover its history is located about 12 miles south of Cairo, at 29.8493° north latitude 31.2550° east longitude. There's no such thing as "the closest line". Longitude is not some official set of standard lines, from which we're supposed to pick one that's somewhere close to the location we're working with. A 'line' can be drawn at ANY longitude. You wouldn't ask somebody "What mark on the ruler is closest to your height ?" You would ask him "How tall are you ?" Similarly, you don't need to be satisfied with "What line of longitude that the publisher decided to print on this map is closest to the place I'm interested in ?" You have every right to ask "What is the longitude of that place ?" whether or not the publisher has decided to print a line there.
When you use longitude and latitude it makes it much,much easier to find anspecific place.First,you look for the longitude and then the latitude and thenyou run your both fingers down the line until they both meet each other andthat's when you find your place or city that you where looking for.==============================By taking a ruler and making one measurement up from the floor and onemeasurement from the corner of the room, you can come up with two numbersthat exactly describe the location of any point on the entire wall.By doing exactly the same thing on the globe, you can come up with two numbersthat exactly describe the location of any point on the entire Earth. You just have toknow where each measurement starts from. And the rulers are printed right thereon the globe for you.
Latitude lines run parallel to the Equator while longitudinal lines (also called meridians) run north-south. The latitude angle ranges from 0 degrees at the Equator to 90 degrees at either the north or south pole.

There can't be too much there, since there's no such longitude as 270 degrees. Longitudes ... both east and west ... range from zero to 180 degrees, max.
A standard measure of each wine.

None. Feet measure length and milliliters measure volume. They do not convert to each other.
Each of the 6 interior angles is 120 degrees in a hexagon.
Each cruise line will suggest an amount.
36 and 144 degrees
That depends on how much line is on the spool, if the spool is empty then each turn retrieves less line then when it is nearly full.
When to measure things like tempatures or grades or, well, pretty much anything.
