What is the angle between the hands of the clock at seven ocklock?

Going clockwise... 210 degrees. Going anti-clockwise... 150 degrees.


What is the angle of the hands of a clock at 7?

Measuring from the minute hand (at 12) and going clockwise, it would be 210 degrees.


What is greater than 180 but less than 160?

This question is illogical....and the only awnser possible could be in unreal numbers This might be a stretch. Start with a circle, and a diameter going through the center, 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock. Moving a radius upward from 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock is 180 degrees. Keep going another 20 degrees and you have 200 degrees, sweeping from 9 o'clock and going clockwise. That same angle will give you 160 degrees starting at 9 o'clock and sweeping anti-clockwise. So any angle anti-clockwise from 9 o'clock that is greater than zero degrees and less than 160 degrees is in a sense greater than 180 degrees sweeping clockwise. Thinking outside the box is amazingly fun!


What fraction of a clockwise revolution does the hour hand of a clock turn when it goes from 5 to 2?

If the hour hand traveled 5 to 5 then it would have traveled one full circle equal to 360 degrees. But we want the angle only up to 2, which is 90 degrees short. Therefore the fraction of a clockwise revolution of the hour hand going from 5 to 2 is (360 - 90)/(360) = 270/360 = 27/36 = 9/12 = 3/4


Imagine a pie chart like a clock if the hand is on 3 oclock what percent of pie is that?

Assuming one hand is at 12 and the other at 3, then going clockwise that is 25% of the pie chart.

What is the meaning of clockwise?

it refers to the way in which things move. clockwise means the direction that the hands on a clock turn. counter clockwise means the opposite way the hands turn on a clock


What does 210 degrees look like?

At 7 o'clock the hands on an analogue clock make a 210 degree angle - going from 12, clockwise, to 7.


How many degrees between north and north west?

There are 90o between north and west. It actually matters on which way your going, so if your going north to west anti - clockwise then its 90o but when you clockwise, its 270o. Hope that helps! ~ Mishy c;


What is counter-clockwise?

Counter clockwise is the opposite to clockwise , so if you think of a clock and it goes right , counter clockwise is the other way round so it's going left.


Would you be traveling clockwise or counterclockwise if you were going from Edinburgh to Cardiff to London and back to Edinburgh?

It would be a triangular clock but you will be travelling anti-clockwise.


At 1 pm what degrees did the angle on the clock form?

On an analog clock it would be 30 degrees. Each hour is going to be 30 degrees. So at 2 it would be 60 degrees.


What is counter clockwise?

Clockwise goes right in a circle, counterclockwise goes left in a circle.


What is anti-clock wise?

The fingers/pointers on an analogue clock move clockwise. The is from 12 o'clock they move to thew right to 1 and then 2. et.seq., This is named 'clockwise' Most rotating objects are designed to move in this manner. However, going back to the analogue clock, if the pointer/finger moves from 12 back to 11 to 10 , that is to the left , then it is described as 'anti-clockwise' or 'counter clockwise'. NB The prefix word 'anti' comes from Latin and means 'against'. So 'Anti-clockwise ' means gainst normal clock movement.


Why does clock moves anti clock wise?

The hands of the clock DO NOT move "anti-clockwise." If you look at the top sweep of the hands of an analog clock (from the numbers 9 to 3), it sweeps an arc from left to right. If you look at the bottom sweep of the hands of an analog clock (from the numbers 3 to 9), it sweeps an arc from right to left. The continuous sweep of the large hand (minute hand) demonstrates a clockwise sweeping motion. The only ways a normal analog clock would appear to be going anti, or counter clockwise is: (1) you are looking at it from a mirror, or (2) you are looking through the back-side of a transparent clock and or wall watching a "counter-clockwise" sweep of the hands


How can you tell if your ceiling fan is going clockwise or counter clockwise?

Good question. It depends on your point of reference. If you Look UP at it while it is installed on the ceiling, then use the nob or pulley that controls the fan to use as the 12 marker on the clock. If it goes to the right its clockwise and to the left it is counter-clockwise
