A satellite is at position P (52°S, 114°E) and another is at Q (52°S, 66°W). The radius of the Earth is 6370 km. Calculate (a) the difference in longitude between P and Q, and (b) the shortest distanc

You're on a roll — Here's the solution to the problem: Given: Earth's radius R = 6370 km Position of P: (52^ S, 114^ E) Position of Q: (52^ S, 66^ W) a) Find the difference in longitude between two points P and Q. Step 1: Identify the longitudes of P and Q. Longitude of P = 114^ E Longitude of Q = 66^ W Step 2: Calculate the difference in longitude. Since one point is East and the other is West, the difference is the sum of their absolute longitudes. Difference in longitude = 114^ + 66^ = 180^ The difference in longitude is 180^. b) Calculate the shortest distance between points P and Q along- i) The Latitude in km (to 1 whole number). Step 1: Identify the common latitude and the difference in longitude. Both P and Q are on latitude 52^ S. Difference in longitude = 180^ (from
