The second hand of a clock completes one full revolution every 60 seconds. To move from the 3 to the 8 on the clock face, the second hand needs to cover a distance of 5 out of the 60 total seconds on the clock. Therefore, it would take 5/60 or 1/12 of a minute for the second hand to move from the 3 to the 8, which is equivalent to 5 seconds.

What is The second hand on a clock revolves at 1 revolution per minute how many degrees per second is this?

Oh, that's a happy little question! Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, and a full circle is 360 degrees, the second hand on a clock moves at 6 degrees per second. Isn't that just a delightful little detail to know? Just imagine that gentle movement bringing peace and tranquility to your day.


How many degrees does the second hand on a clock travel when it moves through one second?

6 degrees. There are 360 degrees in a full circle, and therefore for every second the hand moves through one sixtieth of a circle.

If a clock chimes five times in four seconds how many times will it chime in ten seconds?

12 Chimes.Assuming that a "chime" is the full sound range from start to finish, the clock will chime 10x in 8 seconds. It will chime 2.5x in 2 seconds, and assuming that a chime is the full sound length from start to finish, .5 chime does not equal 1 chime.Therefore 10+2=12 ChimesThe above answer is only right if we assume that at 0 seconds the clock chimes 0 times.If we instead assume a starting signal - meaning the clock chimes for the first time at 0 seconds - then it would be reasonable that each consecutive chime would happen one second later. Therefore after 10 seconds the clock would have chimed 11 times.One starting signal and 10 second chimes.

How many seconds will it takes for the second hand o a clock to move from 12 to 2?

To determine the number of seconds it takes for the second hand of a clock to move from 12 to 2, we need to understand the motion of the second hand. The second hand completes one full revolution (360 degrees) in 60 seconds. The clock face is divided into 12 equal sections, each representing an hour. Each hour section represents: \frac{360^\circ}{12} = 30^\circ When the second hand moves from 12 to 2, it moves across 2 hour sections. Therefore, the angle swept by the second hand is: 2 \times 30^\circ = 60^\circ Since the second hand completes 360 degrees in 60 seconds, it sweeps through 1 degree in: \frac{60 \text{ seconds}}{360^\circ} = \frac{1}{6} \text{ seconds per degree} Therefore, to sweep through 60 degrees, the second hand will take: 60^\circ \times \frac{1}{6} \text{ seconds per degree} = 10 \text{ seconds} Thus, it takes 10 seconds for the second hand to move from 12 to 2.
