A digital wristwatch was set accurately at 8.30 am and then lost 2 seconds every 5 minutes What time was indicated on the watch at 6.30 pm of the same day if the watch operated continuously t?
To determine the time indicated on the watch at 6:30 pm, we first calculate the total number of seconds elapsed from 8:30 am to 6:30 pm, which is 10 hours or 600 minutes. Since the watch loses 2 seconds every 5 minutes, it loses 24 seconds every hour (2 seconds lost every 5 minutes * 12 sets of 5 minutes in an hour). Therefore, over 10 hours, the watch would lose 240 seconds or 4 minutes. Subtracting 4 minutes from 6:30 pm gives us the time indicated on the watch as 6:26 pm.
