Question:
If the length of the minute hand of a circular clock is 28 cm, then find the area swept by the minute hand in 15 minutes.
Answer:
The area swept by the minute hand of circular clock in 15 minutes is 616 cm².
Step-by-step-explanation:
NOTE: Refer to the attachment for the diagram.
We have given that,
The length of minute hand of a circular clock is 28 cm.
We have to find the area swept by the minute hand in 15 minutes.
A minute hand is joined to the centre of the clock i. e. circle.
Hence, the minute hand is radius of the circle.
When a minute hand will move in 15 minutes, it will make a right angle from the point it started moving to the point which it stopped ( completed ) 15 minutes.
Suppose, a minute hand is on 12.
After 15 minutes, it will be on 3.
The angle between 12 & 3 in a clock is a right angle.
From this information, it is clear that,
We have to find the area of the sector made by the minute hand in a circular clock i. e. Area of the shaded region in the figure.
Now, we know that,
The area swept by the minute hand in 15 minutes is 616 cm².
