Which see different constellations at the same time.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Let us name the co ordinates for simplicity.

A = (60 ° W, 15 ° N)
B = (120⁰ W, 45⁰ N)
C = (30⁰ E, 30⁰ N)
D = (90⁰E, 30⁰ N)
E = (90⁰ W, 30⁰ N)
F = (120⁰ W, 45⁰ S)

The position of the points are taken from a map.

A = North Atlantic ocean

B = Oregon, USA

C = Matrouh Egypt

D = Tibet, China

E = LA, USA

F = South pacific ocean

a) The meridian of longitude is given in the part before the comma.

We can see that B and F have the same longitude.

b) NO points given here have the same length between.

c) Latitude is given as the second number after the comma

Here, C,D and E have the same latitude.

d) The same constellation is observed at different times of a same day for the same latitude.

So, same star will be observed at different times for C,D and E.

e) Different stars are observed at the same time for the same longitude (note: There is a small problem with the way this question is framed, but this is what the person meant)

So, different stars are observed at the same time for B and F.
