B, 13:00. UTC-5 is 5 hours behind UTC.
10 Which statement is correct about a city at UTC+11 compared with UTC+8? L2
D, It is 3 hours ahead. $11 - 8 = 3$ hours.
11 How many degrees of longitude correspond to 1 hour of time difference? L3
C, $15^\circ$. $360^\circ \div 24 = 15^\circ$.
12 Two places differ by $45^\circ$ longitude. What is the theoretical time difference? L3
A, 3 h. $45 \div 15 = 3$ hours.
13 Which coordinate is in the Southern Hemisphere? L3
D, $34^\circ$S. South latitude is south of the Equator.
14 Which coordinate is east of Greenwich? L3
B, $151^\circ$E. East longitudes are measured east of Greenwich.
15 Sydney is approximately $151^\circ$E and London is $0^\circ$. Which city is theoretically ahead? L3
A, Sydney. Locations farther east are ahead in solar time.
16 How long from 11:55 pm to 12:20 am? L1
C, 25 min. There are 5 min to midnight, then 20 min more.
17 A timetable shows arrivals 08:04, 08:22, 08:40. What is the interval? L1
B, 18 min. Each time is 18 minutes after the previous one.
18 If New York is UTC-4 and Sydney is UTC+10, Sydney is how many hours ahead? L2
A, 14 h. $10 - (-4) = 14$.
19 It is 23:15 Tuesday at UTC+10. What is the time at UTC+12? L2
D, 01:15 Wednesday. UTC+12 is 2 hours ahead.
20 A place is at $30^\circ$W and another is at $15^\circ$E. What is their longitude difference? L3
C, $45^\circ$. Across Greenwich, add magnitudes.
21 The theoretical time difference for $7.5^\circ$ of longitude is: L3
A, 30 min. $7.5 \div 15 = 0.5$ h.
22 If two places are both east longitudes, how do you find their longitude difference? L3
B, Subtract the smaller longitude from the larger longitude. For the same direction, take the difference.
23 A flight leaves UTC+8 at 20:30 and lasts 4 h. What UTC time does it land? L2
D, 16:30. 20:30 at UTC+8 is 12:30 UTC, then add 4 h.
24 A movie runs for 132 minutes. How long is this? L1
C, 2 h 12 min. 132 min is 120 min plus 12 min.
25 Latitude measures distance north or south of the: L3
