In an accurate clock, in a period of 2 hours 40 minutes, the minute hand will move over.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 960°
The minute hand goes once round the dial, 360° in 60 minutes, so it turns through 6° every minute.
2 hours 40 minutes \(=120+40=160\) minutes
Angle turned \(=160\times6^\circ=\) 960°
