Question

1.
An hour hand rotates through........
in one minute.
find the answer in degrees...​

Answer 1

Clock angle problems relate two different measurements: angles and time. The angle is typically measured in degrees from the mark of number 12 clockwise. The time is usually based on 12-hour clock.

A method to solve such problems is to consider the rate of change of the angle in degrees per minute.

The hour hand of a normal 12-hour analogue clock turns 360° in 12 hours (720 minutes) or 0.5° per minute. The minute hand rotates through 360° in 60 minutes or 6° per minute.

Answer 2

Answer:

In an Hour Hand it takes 12 hours (720 minutes) to complete one Rotation (360°)

It must move 360/72 = 0.5° per minute
