Ten past ten on a clock face has the hands balanced symmetrically on either side of the 12. Other times would also do this: quarter-past nine, for example, or twenty past eight. But ten ten looks best for display.

What is a minute hand on a clock?

The minute hand is the largest hand on most analogue clocks. At 3 o'clock on a 12-hour clock, the minute hand is pointing straight up to the 12. It measures time to the nearest minute by advancing one of the small minute hash marks every 60 seconds. Every time the second hand makes one full sweep of the clock face, the minute hand advances one of the minute marks. The second hand is the fastest moving hand on a standard analogue clock, making one full sweep every 60 seconds.

How do you set the clock on a 1997 Chevy Blazer?

I asked my buddy manwell... oh, uh, Manual. SETTING THE CLOCK: Press "SET". WITHIN FIVE SECONDS, press and hold "SEEK" until the correct minute appears on the display. Press and hold "SCAN" until the correct hour appears on the display. SETTING THE CLOCK FOR AM-FM STEREO WITH COMPACT DISC PLAYER AND AUTOMATIC TONE CONTROL: Press and hold "HR" until the correct hour appears on the display. Press and hold "MIN" until the correct minute appears on the display. To display the clock with the ignition off, press "RECALL" and the time will be displayed for a few seconds. There is an initial two-second delay before the clock goes into the time-set mode. You might want to print this or write it down... I have to look it up every time... I guess it's just too easy to actually remember. Good Luck!
