EXERCISE-25

  1. On 1st Sept 1992, PM at ship in DR 200 58’N 1200 19’W the sextant altitude of the Moon’s LL was 3306’ at 02h 35m 55s chron time (error 10m 42s slow). If IE was 03’ off the arc and HE was 30m, find the direction of the PL and a position through which to draw it.

  1. On 22nd Sept 1992, AM at ship in DR 100 02’S 760 50’E, the sextant altitude of the Moon’s LL was 0.6’ on the arc and HE was 14m, find the direction of the PL and the longitude where it cuts the DR lat.
Solution –2A 2B 2C
  1. On 6th March 1992, AM at ship in DR 000 00’ 600 50’W, the Sextant altitude of the Moon’s UL was 4409’ at 02h 44m 48s chron time (error 11m 16s fast). If HE was 15m and IE was 0.4’ off the arc, find the direction of the PL and a position through which it passes.
Solution –3A3B3C
  1. On 25th Feb 1992, AM at ship in DR 350 03’S 870 11’E, the observed altitude of the Moon’s UL was 4605’ at 03h 16m 26s chron time (error 05m 06s fast). If HE was 18m, find the direction of the PL and a position through which it passes.
