Question
How many degrees and distance along the equator an average hour of time zone covers? Show your calculation. Show all your calculations. Longitude of New York Is 74 degree West. From the answer to Qs # 6 and knowing the time difference between New York and the San Francisco Bay Area, calculate the approximate longitude of Fremont, California. Show your calculations below. Compare this with the actual longitude of Fremont as determined from an atlas in Qs 4 (a). Calculated value of Longitude of Fremont, California Measured (from atlas) value of Longitude of Fremont, California Study the atlas or world map or globe and locate San Francisco (California) and Karachi (Pakistan) on the map. If it is 10 am on a Sunday in San Francisco, what time will it be in Karachi? Show your work in detail and systematically. If It is 8 pm in New York, USA what time will it be in Santiago, Chile? Explain. If it is 12 midnight in London, England, what time will it be in Tokyo, Japan? Explain.Explanation / Answer
Answer 6: The Earth takes 24 Hours to go around 360 degree circle. That means it travel rate is 360/24 is equals to 15 degree per hour.
And as it travels 40000 to make one circle hence in an hour it go 40000/24 is equals to 1666.66 KM.
Answer 7: The time difference between New York and San Francisco is 3 Hours.
Hence the difference in degree equals to 3 x 15 equals to 45 degree.
That means longitude of fremont equal to approx 74 + 45 = 119 W.
For 2nd part the refrence value is not seen hence unable to calculate.
Answer 8
Karachi Time = UTC + 5 Hours where as San Francisco is UTC-7 Hours
Hence there would be difference of 12 Hours and Karachi would be 12 hours ahead of San Francisco. That means if Current time in San Francisco is Sunday 10 AM then Karachi would be Sunday 10 PM.
Answer 9:
New York time zone UTC-04 Hours whereas Santiago is UTC-03 hours
That means there is difference of an hour between these 2 cities and Santiago is one hour ahead of New York.
if this is 8 PM in new York then it would be 9 PM in chile.
Ans 10: London is UTC + 1 Hours and Tokyo is UTC + 9 Hours
