What is the solor time of 72w longitude?
Local mean time at 72 degrees west longitude is UTC-4:48.
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).
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).
How many degrees of longitude do you need to travel across to pass through one hour of time?
The Earth rotates at the rate of roughly 15 degrees of longitude per hour.
How many degrees of longitude equal 1 time zone?
A polar view of the planet is roughly circular, that is, a total 360 degrees. There are about 24 hours in each day. Divide 360 by 24; the answer is 15, so there are 15 degrees of longitude in each time zone.

What longitude is London found?
The Prime Meridien (0 degrees longitude) passes through the London Borough of Greenwich - hence GMT (Greenwich Mean Time).
Degrees of longitude can be used to mark what?
time
What do longitude lines have to do with time?
There are 24 time zones. The Earth is 360 degrees around the circumference. So, for every 15 degrees of longitude there is one time zone.

Where does Britain and London get there time from?
GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). 0 degrees Longitude runs through Greenwich, a suburb of southeast London.
what is 1 degree longitude difference equivalent to change in time?
0 degrees longitude
What is the hour and the date at 120 degrees east longitude?
England's Royal Observatory in Greenwich (the source of Greenwich Mean Time - GMT) is 0 degrees longitude and the reference point. 120 degrees East is the longitude of the east coast of Taiwan. At that longitude, 1/3 of a circumference from Greenwich, the standard time (and date) should be 8 hours ahead of Greenwich. So if it is 4am in Greenwich, it should be noon in Taiwan.
What major London suburb is at 0 degrees longitude?
Greenwich. That's where the term GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) comes from.
