β 11y agoone minute of latitude is approximately 1.15 miles (1.853 km).
You can just divide that by 60 to get the distance for one second and multiply 60 to get 60 minutes.

β 11y agoOne second of latitude represents 30.87 meters.
Each degree is divided into 60 minutes, and each minute is divided into 60 seconds. While the distance represented by a degree of longitude can vary with the latitude, each degree of latitude (north and south) is equal to 60 nautical miles, so one minute of latitude is equal to 1 nautical mile. (About 1.15 statute miles) One nautical mile is equal to 2026 yards, so one second of latitude is equal to 33.8 feet.
The distance between each degree of latitude is about 111 kilometers (69 miles). To convert this distance to time, you would need to consider the speed of travel. Assuming an average speed of 100 km/h, one degree of latitude would take about 1 hour to travel.
Aruba is about 863 miles [1,389 kilometers; 750 nautical miles] from the Equator.Aruba's latitude is 12 degrees 30 minutes North latitude. One degree of latitude is equal to about 69 miles [60 nautical miles]. There are 60 minutes in one degree of latitude. The formula to figure the distance is 12.5 x 69 miles [60 nautical miles]. The result is 863 miles [750 nautical miles].
At 46.5Β° latitude, one degree of latitude is approximately 68.71 miles. The distance in miles covered by one degree of longitude varies based on the latitude, and 80.9Β° longitude does not affect this latitude calculation.
There are approximately 69 miles in one degree of latitude, which remains fairly constant regardless of location on Earth. However, the distance of one degree of longitude varies depending on the latitude, with the distance approaching zero at the poles.
One minute of latitude represents 1 nautical mile

No, minutes of latitude measure distance north or south from the equator. Each degree of latitude is divided into 60 minutes, with one minute of latitude being approximately equal to one nautical mile.

40° of latitude on the Earth's surface is a distance of about 2,762 miles.
Each degree of latitude is divided into 60 minutes, and each minute is further divided into 60 seconds.

Minutes (and seconds) are finer subdivisions of degrees. There are 60 minutes in a degree, so a minute represents 1/60th of a degree.
