If a clock was exactly on time at noon on Monday At 8pm on Tuesday it was 32 seconds slow at the same rate how much did it lose in half an hour?

The clock lost 32 seconds in 32 hours ie 1 second per hour. So in half an hour it would have lost half a second.


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.
