Chapter 2: Geographic Grid

I. Give geographical reason for the following:


1. The distance between two successive lines of latitude remains constant.
2. We express latitude and longitudes in degrees of angle.
3. International Date Line has a time difference of 24 hours.
4. The IDL is not a straight line.
5. It is practical to follow standard time rather than local time.
6. Diametrically opposite lines of longitudes are great circle

II. Study the diagram and answer the question:


1. Calculate the time at Q when it is 7 a.m. at A.
2. What is P in the diagram?

III. Calculate the time at 45° E when the time at Johannesburg (30° W) is 2 p.m.
IV. Calculate the local time at Singapore (104°E) when it is 6:00 p.m. at Greenwich.
