Step-by-step solution for: Rebels - America the Story of Us (Season 1, Episode 1) - Apple TV
It seems you've uploaded an image containing a worksheet or assessment related to "Time Zones and the 24-Hour Clock System." Since I cannot directly view images, I'll provide a general explanation of how to solve problems involving time zones and the 24-hour clock system. If you can describe the specific questions from the worksheet, I can tailor my response more accurately.
#### 1. Understanding Time Zones
- The world is divided into 24 time zones, each roughly corresponding to a 15-degree segment of longitude.
- Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) or Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the reference point for all other time zones.
- Each time zone is typically offset by a whole number of hours from UTC (e.g., UTC+1, UTC-8).
- Some regions observe daylight saving time (DST), which shifts their local time forward by one hour during part of the year.
#### 2. Converting Between Time Zones
To convert a time from one time zone to another:
1. Identify the UTC offset for both the starting and destination time zones.
2. Calculate the difference in hours between the two time zones.
3. Add or subtract the difference from the given time, taking care to adjust for AM/PM if necessary.
#### 3. Using the 24-Hour Clock
- The 24-hour clock eliminates the need for AM/PM distinctions.
- Times are expressed as four digits: hours followed by minutes (e.g., 14:30 for 2:30 PM).
- To convert from 12-hour to 24-hour format:
- For times before 12:00 PM, keep the same hour (e.g., 10:30 AM = 10:30).
- For times after 12:00 PM, add 12 to the hour (e.g., 3:45 PM = 15:45).
#### 4. Common Problem Types
Here are some common types of problems you might encounter:
##### Problem Type 1: Converting Between Time Zones
Example:
If it is 9:00 AM in New York (UTC-5), what time is it in London (UTC+0)?
Solution:
1. New York is UTC-5, and London is UTC+0.
2. The difference is \( 0 - (-5) = +5 \) hours.
3. Add 5 hours to 9:00 AM:
\( 9:00 \text{ AM} + 5 \text{ hours} = 2:00 \text{ PM} \).
Answer: 2:00 PM in London.
##### Problem Type 2: Converting Between 12-Hour and 24-Hour Formats
Example:
Convert 3:45 PM to the 24-hour format.
Solution:
1. Since it is PM, add 12 to the hour:
\( 3 + 12 = 15 \).
2. The minutes remain the same.
Answer: 15:45.
##### Problem Type 3: Calculating Elapsed Time Across Time Zones
Example:
A flight departs from Tokyo (UTC+9) at 16:00 and arrives in Los Angeles (UTC-8) 12 hours later. What is the arrival time in Los Angeles?
Solution:
1. Departure time in Tokyo: 16:00 (4:00 PM).
2. Flight duration: 12 hours.
Adding 12 hours to 16:00 gives 04:00 (next day in Tokyo).
3. Convert Tokyo's time to Los Angeles' time zone:
Tokyo is UTC+9, and Los Angeles is UTC-8.
Difference: \( -8 - 9 = -17 \) hours.
Subtract 17 hours from 04:00:
\( 04:00 - 17 \text{ hours} = 11:00 \text{ PM} \) the previous day.
Answer: 11:00 PM in Los Angeles.
##### Problem Type 4: Adjusting for Daylight Saving Time
Example:
If it is 10:00 AM in Sydney (UTC+10) on March 1, and Sydney observes DST, what is the equivalent time in New York (UTC-5)?
Solution:
1. During DST, Sydney's time zone becomes UTC+11.
2. New York is UTC-5.
3. Difference: \( -5 - 11 = -16 \) hours.
Subtract 16 hours from 10:00 AM:
\( 10:00 \text{ AM} - 16 \text{ hours} = 6:00 \text{ PM} \) the previous day.
Answer: 6:00 PM the previous day in New York.

Answer: 6:00 PM the previous day in New York.
