What is the equivalent of 0 min. 16 sec. in arc units?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option D — 0°04'

Applying the navigational arc-to-time conversion factor where 1 second of time equals 15 arcseconds, multiplying 16 seconds by 15 yields 240 arcseconds, which simplifies exactly to 4 arcminutes (0 degrees 04').
