4. Over the course of a night, suppose you are observing two stars that you label as Star A and Star B. The coordinates of Star A are RA = 9h 00m 0s, DEC = 0° 0' 0" and the coordinates of Star B are RA = 11h 20m 0s, DEC = 0° 0' 0". On that night, Star A passes through the zenith at 12:15 A.M. local time. At what time will Star B pass through the zenith? Explain your answer.
