The diameter of the Sun makes an angle of 0.53 from Earth. How many minutes does it

Question:

The diameter of the Sun makes an angle of 0.53° from Earth. How many minutes does it take the Sun to move 1 solar diameter in an overhead sky? (Remember that it takes 24 hours, or 1440 minutes, for the Sun to move through 360°.) How does your answer compare with the time it takes the Sun to disappear, once its lower edge meets the horizon at sunset? (Does refraction affect your answer?)
