It depends on how big the clock is. If it is a big clock, then the hand moves faster than one that is in a small clock because the markings would be further apart.

If a round analog clock featuring numbers 1-12 is hung on the wall upside down the minute hand will point to the right of the viewer when the time reads two forty-five?

When a round analog clock is hung upside down, the "12" position will now be at the bottom, and the "6" position will be at the top. In this orientation, the minute hand will point to the right of the viewer when the time reads two forty-five, as the minute hand will be pointing towards the "3" position on the clock face. This is because the minute hand points to the minute marker corresponding to the number of minutes past the hour.


What is a minute hand on a clock?

The minute hand is the largest hand on most analogue clocks. At 3 o'clock on a 12-hour clock, the minute hand is pointing straight up to the 12. It measures time to the nearest minute by advancing one of the small minute hash marks every 60 seconds. Every time the second hand makes one full sweep of the clock face, the minute hand advances one of the minute marks. The second hand is the fastest moving hand on a standard analogue clock, making one full sweep every 60 seconds.


What is least count of a clock if it has hours hand and minute hand?

The least count of a clock with an hour hand and a minute hand is typically one minute. This is because the minute hand moves in increments of one minute, allowing for the most precise measurement of time that can be observed directly on the clock face. While the hour hand indicates hours, its movement is less precise for measuring time intervals compared to the minute hand. Thus, the least count is determined by the finer divisions, which are represented by the minute hand.
