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.
If days had 36 hours how many degrees of longitude would each time zone be?
If a day had 36 hours instead of 24, each time zone would cover 30 degrees of longitude instead of the current 15 degrees. This is because the Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, so with 36 hours in a day, each hour of difference would correspond to 30 degrees of longitude.
How many degrees of longitude exist in each hour?
There are fifteen (15) degrees of longitude per time zone. (15 degrees x 24 zones = 360 degrees around the planet)
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
What is the time difference between each degree of longitude?
The time difference per degree is 4 minutes. (1440 minutes divided by 360). There are 15 degrees of longitude for each hourly time zone, yielding 24 zones times 15 degrees, which also equals 360.

How many degrees are in each standard time zone?
There are 15 degrees of longitude in each standard time zone
What is one hour of time equal to longitude degrees?
One hour equals 15 degrees.
If days had 36 hours how many degrees of longitude would each time zone be?

The time difference per degree is 4 minutes. (1440 minutes divided by 360). There are 15 degrees of longitude for each hourly time zone, yielding 24 zones times 15 degrees, which also equals 360.
What will be the time on 20 degree longitude if it is 12 noon at greenwich?
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is the time at the Prime Meridian (0 degrees longitude). Each degree of longitude corresponds to a time difference of 4 minutes. At 20 degrees east longitude, the time would be 20 degrees × 4 minutes = 80 minutes ahead of GMT. Therefore, if it is 12 noon at Greenwich, the time at 20 degrees longitude would be 1:20 PM.
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 degrees of longitude do you need to travel across to pass through one time zone?
360° of longitude divided by 24 time zones gives 15° per time zone (average)
When it is 10am at 45W what is it at 45E?
If it is 10 am at 45 degrees W longitude, it is 4 pm at 45 E longitude.
How many maridians does a time zone span?
A time zone typically spans 15 degrees of longitude, as there are 24 hours in a day and 360 degrees of longitude around the Earth. This means each time zone covers four meridians, one for each hour.
