Practicing Success
The angular distance covered by the minute hand in 1 Hr 20 minutes is : |
420° 480° 192° 310° |
480° |
Movement of minute hand in 60 minutes = 360 degrees So, the angular speed of the minute hand = 6 degrees per minute In 60 minutes / 1 hour, angular distance cover by minute hand = 6 × 60 = 360 degrees In 20 minutes, angular distance cover by minute hand = 6 × 20 = 120 degrees So, the angular distance covered by the minute hand in 1 hour 20 minutes = 360 + 120 = 480 degrees |
