What GMT is the sun highest at 87 degrees west longitude?

Since the earth rotates at the rate of (360 / 24) = 15 degrees per hour, 87 degrees is (87 / 15) = 5.8 hours west of Greenwich.Therefore at 87 deg w lon, the sun is highest exactly 5.8 hours after it is highest at Greenwich (London).Due to the eccentricity of the earth's orbit, the clock-time of sun transit is not constant throughout the year, even at Greenwich.But on a day when the sun at Greenwich is highest at 1200, then at 87 deg w lon, the sun must transit at 1748GMT.

As a ship crosses the prime meridian an observer on the ship measures the altitude to polaris is 60 degrees what is the ships location?

The Prime Meridian is by definition 0 degrees longitude. So that part is a given simply because you're at the Prime Meridian. Polaris is directly over the North axial pole. If you were at the equator, Polaris would be right at the horizon (zero degrees above the horizon). If you moved 10 degrees north, Polaris would appear above the horizon by the same amount. So if Polaris is 50 degrees above the horizon, you must be 50 degrees north of the equator (meaning you're at 50 degrees North latitude).
