What is the time difference between two meridian lines?

The Greenwich Meridian, also known as the prime meridian or International Meridian, bisects the primary division of time zones. Each time zone is 15 degrees of longitude in width, with local variations, and observes a clock time one hour earlier than the zone immediately to the east. The time difference between two meridian lines is one hour (the time difference between two longitudinal lines is 4 minutes and consequently the time difference between 15 longitudinal lines; or two meridian lines; would be one hour). Refer to link below.

The Greenwich Meridian bisects the primary division of time zones. Each time zone is 15 degrees of longitude in width, with local variations, and observes a clock time one hour earlier than the zone immediately to the east. The time difference between two meridian lines depends on where you draw the lines. There is no official standard set of lines that everyone is required to use, and a line can be drawn at ANY longitude. Whatever the longitude difference is between the two meridians you decide to consider, the time difference between them (in hours) is nominally 1/15 of that angle.

What is the international poverty line?

The International Poverty Line was a number decided on by the World Bank during their study on poverty in 1985. They wanted a number to measure the number of people living in extreme poverty. To do this, they documented each country's individual standards for poverty and converted the number to dollars. This amount came to between $275 and $370 per year, or around $1 a day, leading to the name "the dollar-a-day line." The number was revised to $1.08 PPP (Purchasing Power Parity) in 1993. This is only an estimated number since PPP varies greatly depending on the value of currency and cost of goods and services in a country.

What line of longitude would be 180 degrees away from the prime meridian?

The 180th meridian or antimeridian is the meridian which is 180° east or west of the Prime Meridian ... It is common to both east longitude and west longitude.

It runs through the Pacific Ocean, and was the nominal guideline for the position of the International Dateline, although the dateline itself had to depart from the antimeridian in several places.

What is United Kingdoms geographical position in relation to the international date line?

Before World War II, the slogan was that the sun never set on the British Empire; there were British territories literally all around the world. It's still sort-of true, if we include the Commonwealth nations as part of the United Kingdom.

However, the UK generally refers to the British islands of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. That would be on the other side of the world from the International Date Line.

What does the prime meridian and international dateline combine to do?

Ideally, the International Date Line should be the meridian of 180° longitude. Actually,

it has been zigged and zagged to avoid cutting across any island or country, since to do

so would put two different calendar dates in the same country simultaneously.

If the IDL coincided with the 180° meridian, then together with the Prime Meridian, it would

form a great circle on the earth, passing through the north and south poles as well as through

Greenwich. As it is now, the Prime Meridian, the 180° meridian, and all other meridians of longitude

are semi-circles, that begin and end at the poles.

Is the day date and time important in a case because you had a hearing and you were asking about a descrepency in the day date and time and the trooper said that the day date and time is irrelevant?

The day, date and time where? Used for what?

If it is relevant to whatever matter is being decided at the hearing, it could be important. If the day, date and time have no effect over what is being decided in the hearing, it is irrelevant.

For example, if your hearing is on your motion to dismiss your criminal case, and you are charged with robbing the bank, and the camera shows the thief in the bank at 1:05 am on Friday February 18, 2011, but you can establish that you were standing at an ATM, through their camera, 50 miles away, the day, date and time is very relevant.

On the other hand, if your hearing is on your motion to dismiss your criminal case, and you are charged with robbing the bank at the same time, but you have no alibi evidence, the time may not matter.

When you look at the light in distant stars you are really looking back in time explain what this statement means?

Light travels at approximately 186,000 miles per second in a vacuum. If you were this distance away from a light bulb and someone turned it on, you wouldn't see the light turn on until a second elapsed. So, when you see it, you see the state of the light bulb as it actually was 1 second ago. That is, you would see it how it looked 1 second in the past. The same applies for any light source including stars, which are much further away than 1 second away.

What is the imaginary line called that runs through France and the UK?

Every meridian of longitude between 5.14° West and 1.77° East crosses both

France and the UK. Any longitude in this range may be represented by a 'line'.

There are an infinite number of such lines, and they're all imaginary.
