Through how many degrees does the minute hand move...
1. From 10:00 to 11:00?_______________
2. From 4:00 to 4:30?_______________
3. From 6:00 to 6:15?_______________
4. From 9:00 to 9:05?_______________
5. From 3:00 to 3:01?_______________
Please Help!!
Thank You!!
I really do not know how to do this kind of work!!
PLEASE HELP!!
Since there are 360 degrees in a circle and the clock has 12 hours, divide: 360 / 12 = 30. In one hour, the minute hand moves 30 degrees.
In half an hour, it moves 15 degrees.
Can you figure out the rest?
Actually, it is the hour hand that moves 30 degrees in one hour.
the minute hand moves 6 degrees every minute.
eg. from 12:00 to 12:15 the minute hand would form a right angle or 90 degrees
so 90/15 = 6
so for #5
9:00 to 9:05 is 5 minutes
the others are really easy as well
or 30 degrees
Sure! I can help you calculate the number of degrees the minute hand moves in each scenario.
To determine the number of degrees the minute hand moves, we need to know that there are 60 minutes on a clock face, and the minute hand completes a full revolution of 360 degrees in 60 minutes.
1. From 10:00 to 11:00, there are 60 minutes. So, the minute hand moves 360 degrees.
2. From 4:00 to 4:30, there are 30 minutes. Therefore, the minute hand moves (30/60) x 360 degrees = 180 degrees.
3. From 6:00 to 6:15, there are 15 minutes. Therefore, the minute hand moves (15/60) x 360 degrees = 90 degrees.
4. From 9:00 to 9:05, there are 5 minutes. Hence, the minute hand moves (5/60) x 360 degrees = 30 degrees.
5. From 3:00 to 3:01, there is only 1 minute. So, the minute hand moves (1/60) x 360 degrees = 6 degrees.
I hope this helps you understand how to calculate the number of degrees the minute hand moves in different time intervals on a clock face.
