  • Earth's Rotation: How Long to Rotate 60 Degrees?
    Here's how to figure that out:

    * Earth's Rotation: Earth completes a full rotation (360 degrees) in approximately 24 hours.

    * Degrees per Hour: 360 degrees / 24 hours = 15 degrees per hour.

    * Minutes for 60 Degrees: 60 degrees / 15 degrees per hour = 4 hours.

    * Minutes in 4 Hours: 4 hours * 60 minutes per hour = 240 minutes

    Therefore, it takes the Earth 240 minutes (or 4 hours) to rotate 60 degrees.
