🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between time and arc in celestial navigation (Earth rotates 360° in 24 hours) • Conversion of seconds of time to minutes of arc • Knowing that 1 hour of time corresponds to 15° of arc

💭 Think About

• First convert 0 min. 16 sec. into seconds of time. How many seconds of time is that? • If 24 hours of time = 360° of arc, what arc does 1 second of time represent? • Once you know the arc for 1 second of time, multiply by 16 and convert the result into minutes of arc to match the answer choices.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you are converting time to arc, not arc to time • Confirm you use the proportion: 24h : 360° = 1s : ? degrees • After finding degrees of arc, convert properly to minutes of arc (1° = 60') before comparing with the options.
