Warning: Prepare to argue with your teacher! (Print this page if possible.) When crossing from one time zone to another the local time NORMALLY changes by one hour, or 60 minutes. BUT.... be aware that there are places in the world where time zones change by different numbers of minutes... 15, 30, 45, 90 and even 120 minutes! Examples: (and there are many, many more...) (1) When travelling from Columbia to Venezuela the time changes by 30 minutes; (2) Iran is 30 minutes ahead of Iraq and 90 minutes behind Pakistan. (3) Nepal is 15 minutes ahead of India. (4) The South East corner of Western Australia is 45 minutes ahead of the rest of Western Australia. (5) And my favorite: Vladivostok, Russia is WEST of Japan but has a time zone one hour EARLIER than Japan! So when traveling east from, say, Mongolia you would change the clock AHEAD by 120 minutes (2 hours ) when you reach Vladivostok, Russia, then change your clock BACK one hour when you reach Japan. Strange, but true. TEACHER ADVISORY: Check out the Related Link below and see for yourself! {click on a region for a close-up map} http://www.worldtimezone.com/
Eastern Standard time (EST) zone in the US is one hour ahead of Central Standard time (CST) zone. The sun got there in the east first, so they started ahead of the rest of the US. Central zone is the next zone towards the west from the EST zone. So, to directly answer your question, you would adjust your watch one hour back. For example 8 am in EST is 7 am in CST.
You would arrive in New York at 6:00 AM the next day according to the Eastern Time Zone. This is because there is a 3-hour time difference between Oregon (Pacific Time Zone) and New York (Eastern Time Zone).
An adjacent time zone is one that is next to or neighboring another time zone. This means that the time in the adjacent time zone is typically one hour ahead or behind the time in the neighboring time zone.
360° of longitude divided by 24 time zones gives 15° per time zone (average)
There are a total of 24 standard time zones in the world, each one representing a one-hour difference from the next zone. This system helps coordinate time across regions and countries, making it easier for international communication and travel.

When you travel across time zones, you may experience jet lag due to the disruption in your body's internal clock. This can lead to symptoms like fatigue, insomnia, and difficulty concentrating. Your body may need time to adjust to the new time zone.
When you travel east, you move your watch forward. This is because you are moving into a time zone that is ahead of your current location's time. As you cross each time zone, you typically add one hour for each zone you enter moving eastward.
move it back one hour.
The time zone changes in Tennessee on I-24 at the border between Central Time Zone and Eastern Time Zone. Specifically, the time zone changes near the city of Monteagle, Tennessee. This transition occurs as you travel eastbound on I-24 towards Chattanooga, with the time moving ahead by one hour when crossing into the Eastern Time Zone.
Google Maps accounts for time zone changes by adjusting the estimated travel times based on the time zone of the starting point and destination. This ensures that the directions provided are accurate and take into consideration any time differences that may affect the journey.
If you get an atomic clock it can be set to adjust for the time zone, and as a bonus will always show the correct time.
An adjacent time zone is one that is next to or neighboring another time zone. This means that the time in the adjacent time zone is typically one hour ahead or behind the time in the neighboring time zone.
