Question:

When the minute hand covers a distance of 1 hr 10 min, then what is the angular distance covered by it?

Options:

400°

410°

420°

430°

Correct Answer:

420°

Explanation:

In one hour, minutes hand covers angular distance = 360°

In one minutes, minutes hand covers angular distance = 360o/60 = 6°

So, in 1 hours 10 minutes, minutes hand covers = 6°( 60 + 10)

= 6° x 70 = 420°
