Question

the short and long hands of a clock are 5cm and 6cm long respectively then the distance travelled by long hand in 60 hour is
please help​

Answer 1

Answer:

12,672/7 cm

Or 1810.2857 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In 60 hour, the long hand will complete=12×4=48 rounds.

So distance travelled by its tip=48(circumference of circle of radius 6cm)

= 48 (2 ×pi×Radius)

=48 (2× 22/7 ×6)

=12,672/7 cm

Or 1810.2857 cm

Answer 2

Given:

short hands of a clock are 5cm = r =5 cm

long hands of a clock are 6cm = r= 6 cm

Find distance travelled by long hand in 60 hour

distance traveled by the hands =circumference of the circle

circumference of the circle produced by long hand=2πR

=2 × 3.14 × 6

=37.68 cm

long hand completes 60 rotations in 60hours

=60 × 37.68

=2260.8 cm

Hence the distance travelled by long hand in 60 hour is 2260.8 cm
