SECTION 2
{a) Calculate the convergency between positions A (55°30'N 04°35'W] ond
8 (64°00" N22°97'W).
{b) If the thumb line track from A to B is 313° (T) what is the approximate initial
great circle Track from B to A
The initial great circle track from B.to’A is 245° (T) and the rhumb line track from A
40 Bis 060° 7). If the mean latitude between A and Bis $3° and the longitude of 8
is 02°15'E, what is the Longitude of A?
ang B are both in the southemn hemisphere and the convergency of their
meridions is &°. The Initial great circle track from A to B is 094° (T).
If the position of 8 is 2300'S 20°00'W, what is the position of A?
[0] A.cand 8 are in the same hemisphere.
The initial great circle track from B to A is 268°(T) and the intial great circle track
from A to Bis 092°(1)
i. Inwhich hemisphere are A and B?
i, Whats the thumb line track from A to Be
fo] Cond D are in the same herisphere.
The intial grect circle track from C to C is 063° [T} and the rhumb fine track
From D to Cis 240° (7
