Test: General Awareness- 3 (Electrical) - Question 20

For a time difference of two hours, the longitudinal distance will be equal to ________.

Detailed Solution for Test: General Awareness- 3 (Electrical) - Question 20

Every one degree shift of longitude corresponds to 4 minute time difference.

So a time difference of 1 hour (60 minute) will have:

1 degree = 4 minutes

So, 60/4 = 15 and 15 × 1° = 15°

Now for 2 hours (120 min)

1 degree = 4 minutes

120/4 = 30 and 30 × 1° = 30°

So a time lag of 2 hours corresponds to 30 degrees of longitudinal change.

This follows from a simple fact that 360∘ ⇒ 24 hour.

Which is same as 360° ⇒ 1440 min. So 1° ⇒ 1440360 = 4 minutes.
