If we travel from New Delhi to Paris which time zone are we moving to?
When there is a change of 1 degree in the longitude, the time increases or decreases at a rate of 4 minutes per degree as per the direction. The standard time which is universal all over the world and by which the clocks and time are regulated is called Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). According to it,
1. When it is 12 noon in UTC, it is 5:30 pm in New Delhi. This is because New Delhi is in the time zone UTC+5:30(IST).
2. Whereas, Paris is in the zone UTC+01:00.
Therefore, Paris is 4 hours and 30 minutes behind New Delhi.
