Answer:

The earth will revolve 15° and 0.0833 radian in 1 hour

Explanation:

We know that earth revolve one round on its axis 24 hour

We know that 1 round = 360°

So earth will revolve 360° in 24 hour

So earth will revolve
(360)/(24)=15^(\circ) in 1 hour

Now we have to find the revolution in radian

So
15^(\circ)=15* (\pi )/(180)=0.0833\pi
