c. They are variable winds that move west to east in the midlatitudes.

d. They are converging winds around the Sub-tropical High out of the sinking air.

b. three hours behind you

c. the same time as where you are

d. four hours ahead of you

?? Using standard time zones, if a country is 60 degrees to the east of you, theoretically the time in that location would be

Explanation / Answer

1. d. They are converging winds in the vicinity of the equator at the surface, replacing the rising air.

trade winds converge at equator and move from NorthEast to SouthWest in northern hemisphere and SouthEast to NorthWest in Southern hemisphere between 100 to 300

2. d. the tropics

3. Highest temperatures are found closer to equator which means, (A) in low lattitudes.

4. for every 150 lattitudinal there is an hour time change. Since east, the time in that location is ahead. therefore, answer is

(D)4 hours ahead of you
