Calculate the frequency of rotation of the second hand clock
2pi rad/60 sec
To calculate the frequency of rotation of the second hand of a clock, we need to determine the number of complete rotations the second hand makes in one unit of time.
The second hand of a clock completes one full rotation every 60 seconds. Therefore, the frequency of rotation can be calculated by taking the reciprocal of the time it takes to complete one rotation.
Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, and 60 minutes in an hour, we can calculate the frequency of rotation as follows:
Frequency = 1 / (60 seconds/rotation) = 1/60 Hz
Therefore, the frequency of rotation of the second hand is 0.0167 Hz (rounded to four decimal places).
