Question

What is the time differencefrom the uk to america?

Answer 1

When it's 12 noon in the UK it's 7AM on the east coast of the USA. There's a 5 hour difference.  It would be larger the further west you went in the USA.

Answer 2

The East Coast Of the USA is 5 hours behind the UK, while the West Coast is 8 hours behind.

Answer 3

There are 3 time zones in the US. If you have a mobile phone, with a calender/world clock it will tell you there.

Or, Google it.

Answer 4

Depends where in America.

The furthest would be the Pacific Standard Time zone (western Canada) -- that's 8 hours behind the UK.

The closest would be eastern Canada (Newfoundland), which is 3hrs 30mins behind the UK.

The US has four time zones, ranging from Eastern (eg New York) -- 5 hours behind the UK -- to Pacific (eg California) -- 8 hours behind the UK.

There's a really clear set of time zone maps here, if you want to look up any individual area in Canada, the US or Mexico. http://www.timetemperature.com/tzca/cana...

Answer 5

... you need a better stated question but uk is United Kingdom its also England its on another continent is one difference

Answer 6

There are several time zones in "America" (assuming you're referring to the USA - there are even more in Canada and in South America).

For most of the year the difference is:

Eastern Time (east coast)  - 5 hours

Central Time (Chicago / Houston) - 6 hours

Mountain Time (Denver) - 7 hours

Pacific Time (Seattle / San Francisco / Los Angeles) - 8 hours

Alaska Time (most of Alaska) - 9 hours

Hawaii-Aleutian Time - 10 hours

These differences are reduced by 1 hour for about 3 weeks in the spring and 1 week in the autumn because the US starts daylight saving/summer time earlier and ends it later than Europe, except that in summer Hawaii is 11 hours behind the UK because they don't use daylight saving time at all.

Canada also has:

Atlantic time - 4 hours

Newfoundland time - 3 hours 30 minutes.

Venezuela is 4 hours 30 minutes behind UTC (5h30 behind UK summer time)

Argentina, Uruguay, and Brazil are 3 hours behind UTC, some Brazilian islands are -2 hours (time differences get complicated when northern and southern hemispheres are involved).

Answer 7

As well as the site provided by Phoenix you may find this one quite helpful too...it shows the time and day for anywhere in the world at the same time as where you are.
