The minute-hand of a clock is 6cm long. How far does the end of the hand travel in 35m?
(2 pi r)(35/60)
I don't know the answer
WRONG ANSWER
To find out how far the end of the minute hand travels in 35 minutes, we can use the fact that the length of the minute hand forms the radius of a circle, and the distance traveled is the circumference of the circle.
The formula for the circumference of a circle is C = 2πr, where C is the circumference and r is the radius.
Given that the length of the minute hand is 6 cm, we can substitute this value into the equation:
C = 2π * 6
Using the approximate value of π as 3.14, we can simplify the equation:
C = 2 * 3.14 * 6
= 37.68 cm
So, the end of the minute hand travels approximately 37.68 cm in 35 minutes.
