Program/Source Code:

The source code to add given number of hours to a specified time is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

// Golang program to add given number of hours
// to the specified time

package main

import "fmt"
import "time"

func main() {
	ttime := time.Date(2020, 2, 5, 10, 5, 20, 0, time.UTC)

	res := ttime.Add(time.Hour * 8)
	fmt.Println("Time after 8 hours is: ", res)
}

Output:

Time after 8 hours is:  2020-02-05 18:05:20 +0000 UTC

Explanation:

In the above program, we declare the package main. The main package is used to tell the Go language compiler that the package must be compiled and produced the executable file. Here, we imported the fmt and time packages to use time and fmt related functions.

In the main() function, we created a date-time object using Date() function. Then we added 8 hours to the created date-time object using Add() function. After that, we printed the updated date-time on the console screen.
