So you can tell the minute. STANDARD!
3. The hour hand, the minute hand, and on most clocks, the second hand.
If that's "a quarter to," it means fifteen minutes before the hour; the minute hand on the 9.
that all depends on what kind of clock you have. some clocks tick for 60 seconds until it reaches the next minute. other clocks can have second marks on them that they move to. digital clocks do not have second marks unless you press a button that shows the seconds going up or down.
Some aren't! It's just easier for the degrees to be seen and more even. Square clocks would have short second and minute hands as to not hit the sides. But they wouldn't reach the corner, so telling time might become hard.
Clocks have 0, 2 or 3 hands: 0 (digital clocks), 2 (hour and minute), 3 (hour, minute and second).
clocks got minute hands for the first time in 1680.
Analog clocks have an hour hand and minute hand, and 12 numbers around a circle.
So you can tell the minute. STANDARD!
Yes, moving a clock's minute hand is a rigid motion because the shape and size of the hand do not change during the movement. The hand rotates around a fixed point (the clock center) without any distortion.
The BPM (beats per minute) of a clock is typically 60, as most clocks tick once per second.

Yes, there are clocks designed to run counterclockwise, also known as reverse clocks or backwards clocks. These clocks have their numbers and hands arranged in the opposite direction as traditional clocks, with the hour hand moving counterclockwise and the minute hand moving clockwise. They are often used as novelty items or for artistic purposes.

Make a timer that times one minute. try pendulums, sandtimers and water dripping clocks.
A Leap Minute is a minute that is added or removed according to what's needed to keep our clocks and calendars in synch with the movement of our planet and the sun. The movement of the Earth around the Sun, and around its own axis, doesn't match up exactly to our clocks and calendars. To prevent the error from growing year after year, Leap days, leap hours, leap minutes, even leap seconds, are regularly added to keep everything in synch.
