If the hour hand on a clock moves 1 60th of a degree per minute how many times does it move in an hour?
3600 times.
What is the angle between the 2 hands of a clock when the time is 6 o clock?
180 degrees. The hands are a straight line. Or, to be technical, you divide the clock face (360 degrees) by the number of minutes there are in half a day (clocks only record half a day: AM or PM), which is 360/12*60, so each minute is half a degree. There are 360 minutes between the twelve and the six on a clock. Half of 360 is 180. This only works for times ON THE HOUR, otherwise, the hour hand moves for every minute of time passing.
If in a clock pendulum strikes once at 1'O clock and twice at 2'O clock and so on then how many times the pendulum strikes in one day?
The answer is equal to the sum of these numbers (not counting the midnight of the next day):12 (midnight) +1+2+3...+11+12 (noon) + 1... +10 + 11The sum of all the numbers 1 through 12 is 78. Since there are two 1-12 cycles in a day (midnight to 11 AM, then noon to 11 PM), the answer is 156 strikes in one day.
What two times on a digital clock read the same forward as they do backwards and are 2 minutes apart?
9:59, 10:01
How many times does the second hand go around the clock a day?
Once per Minute -or- 60 times per hour 60x24 1440 Times a day (Also how many minutes that are in a day)
