New Amsterdam's name was changed to New York, in honor of the Duke of York, who organized the mission. The colony of New Netherland was established by the Dutch West India Company in 1624 and grew to encompass all of present-day New York City and parts of Long Island, Connecticut and New Jersey.

Time calculation=

netineya [11]

Answer:

$18:40$ or $6:40\ \text{PM}$

Explanation:

Number of longitudes on Earth = $360^{\circ}$

In one hour the Earth rotates $15^{\circ}$

So, $1^{\circ}$ takes $\dfrac{60}{15}=4\ \text{minutes}$

$100^{\circ}=4\times 100=400\ \text{minutes}\\ =6\ \text{hours and }40\ \text{minutes}$

Since the longitude is in the East the time difference will be added.

So, if it is noon in Greenwich the time at 100 degree East will be $(12+6:40)=18:40$ or $6:40\ \text{PM}$ .

<h3>What are anthropologists?</h3>

Generally, The study of other primates, such as chimpanzees and apes, teaches anthropologists things about humans that, among other things, help them better comprehend human evolution.

In conclusion, We refer to this all-encompassing strategy for gaining knowledge of the many facets of the human experience as "holism." Anthropologists follow this approach. They do this by using archaeology to go into the past and try to piece together how human societies used to live hundreds or thousands of years ago and what was significant to them.
