What are the magnitude of the angular velocity and the angular accelaration of the second hand of a clock?

-- The angular velocity isone revolution/minute = 360 degrees/minute = 6 degrees/second .(2 pi) radians/minute = pi/30 radians per second . -- If the clock is working properly ... not starting, stopping, speeding up, orslowing down ... then the angular acceleration of any of its hands is zero.


What is the angular velocity of the hour hand of a clock?

Angular velocity = angle covered / time taken Hence angular velocity of the hour hand = 2pi/ 12*3600 = 1.4 x 10-4 rad/s


How many radians does the second hand of a clock turn through in thirty second?

pi (there are 2 pi radians in a full circle) [or 3.14159]


Which of the clock arm rotates are constat speed or constant velocity?

Ignoring the fact that some clocks "jump", for example once a second, each of the three arms moves at constant angular velocity. The speed, in this case, is constant; the velocity is not since the direction changes. On the other hand, sometimes people use a vector to describe an angular velocity. Angular momentums add nicely with vector representation.


What is the linear velocity of the second hand of the clock in radians per second?

Wow-here goes. 2 pi radians=360 degrees=60 sec. so we have (2 pi rad)/60 sec=(6.28 rad)/60 sec and is ~ .21 rad/sec eh?


How do you find the acceleration of a second hand?

The second hand of a clock completes one full rotation in 60 seconds. Given that acceleration is the change in velocity over time, the second hand experiences a constant angular acceleration of 0.1 rad/s^2 as it moves in a circular path.


Compare the angular velocity of the earth around its own axis with that of the hour hand of a clock?

Earth's rotation = 1 rev / day. Hour hand = 1 rev / 12 hours = 2 revs / day. The angular velocity of the hour hand is double that of the earth. Numbers: Earth = 2 pi / 24 hours = 2 pi / 86,400 = 7.27 x 10-5 sec-1 Hour hand = 2 pi / 12 hours = 2 pi / 43,200 = 1.45 x 10-4 sec-1


Why does a second hand of a clock have a slower velocity?

No the 'second hand' of a clock has a higher velocity, it makes one rotation each minute, while the minute hand makes on rotation each hour and the hour hand makes one rotation every 12 hours.


What is the speed of a clock's second hand?

A clock's second hand makes one complete revolution each minute. Thus, by definition, it is rotating at one revolution per minute or one RPM. That's its "rotational velocity" and it is the same no matter how big or small the clock might be. The actual velocity that the tip of the second hand might trace out as it revolves around the center of the clock will vary with the length of the second hand. The longer the hand, the faster the tip moves around the circumference.


How many radians does the minute hand of a clock rotate in 1.75 hours?

Since there are 2 Pi radians in one complete turn, then the minute hand turns 1.75 * 2 Pi radians in 1.75 hours.


How long does it take for the minute hand on a clock to pass through 2.5 p radians?

1 radian = approx 9.5 minutes so 2.5 radians = 23.9 minutes. Therefore 2.5 p radians = 23.9p minutes.


How many radian does hour hand of a clock turn in two hours?

pi/3 radians.
