What is the distance between Accra, latitude 5030N and latitude 51030N?
Answer Details
The distance between Accra, latitude 5030N and latitude 51030N can be calculated using the formula: distance = 111.12 x difference in latitude. So, the difference in latitude is 51°30'N - 5°30'N = 46°. Substituting this value into the formula gives: distance = 111.12 x 46 = 5,107.52 km. Rounding up to the nearest whole number gives a distance of 5,108 km. Therefore, the answer is option D: 5,106 km.
