How many times is the minute hand of a clock opposite to the hour hand?

The hands of a clock point in opposite directions (in the same straight line) 11 times in every 12 hours. (Because between 5 and 7 they point in opposite directions at 6 o’clcok only). So, in a day, the hands point in the opposite directions 22 times.

At what time both the hands of a clock are exactly opposite to each other?

Time between 2 o’clock and 3 o’clock, is 1 hour, and the hands of a clock are exactly opposite to each other only once in 1 hour. Hence, option 2) is the correct answer.

How many times are an hour hand and a minute hand of a clock at right angles during their motion from 1.00 pm to 10.00 pm?

Solution(By Examveda Team) The duration from 1 : 00 pm to 10 : 00 pm is 9 hours and during each of these 9 hours the hands of the clock are at right angles twice.

How many times in a day the hour and minute hands of a clock are straight?

Aptitude :: Clock – Discussion How many times in a day, the hands of a clock are straight? Explanation: In 12 hours, the hands coincide or are in opposite direction 22 times. In 24 hours, the hands coincide or are in opposite direction 44 times a day.

How many times the minute hand of a clock will be opposite to the hour hand from 3 00 pm on Friday to 11 00 am on the subsequent Sunday?

From, 3:00 p.m. on Friday to 3.00 p.m. on Saturday (i.e., exactly one day), it occurs 22 times. From 3:00 a.m. Sunday to11:00 a.m. Sunday (i.e., exactly 8 hours), the exception time i.e., 6:00 a.m. lies in between. Hence, both the hands will be opposite for (22 + 11 + 7) = 40 times.

How many times hour and minute hand of a clock are at?

In other words, the minute hand “overtakes” the hour hand on 44 occasions in 24 hours in order to give a 90 degree angle. Therefore the answer to your question is 44. Relative speed is 5.5 degree/min. Time is 24*60 mins.

How many times are an hour hand and a minute hand of a clock will be at right angles?

If you switch to a rotating coordinate system in which the hour hand stands still, then the minute hand makes only 11 revolutions, and so it is at right angles with the hour hand 22 times. In a 24 hour day you get 2×22=44. More mathematically, it can be done as : The minute hand moves 360 degrees in 60 minutes.

At what time between 3 and 4 will the hands of a clock be together?

At what time between 3 O’Clock and 4 O’Clock will the two hands coincide?

How many times do the hands of a clock point opposite?

22 times. The hands of a clock point in opposite directions (in the same straight line) 11 times in every 12 hours. (Because between 5 and 7 they point in opposite directions at 6 o’clcok only). So, in a day, the hands point in the opposite directions 22 times.

When does the hour hand go to 1 o’clock?

By the time the minute hand has gone all the way round the clock and is back at 12, one hour later (i.e., at 1 o’clock), the hour hand has moved to 1. Five minutes later, the minute hand reaches 1, but they don’t quite meet there because the hour hand would have moved 1/12 of the distance between 1 and 2, to indicate 5 minutes past 1.

How many times does the minute and hour clock overlap?

ABC is right!!! uh each time the minute hand goes around the hour hand moves to a new spot, so they overlap once a minute,60 times and hour, and 1440 times in a day. As it is to be counted from 0 to 24 hours, it starts at 12 o clock and ends at 12 o clock.

Why are the hands of a clock always 11?

We are dividing with 11, because the hands of a clock coincide 11s time in 12 hours and 22 times in 24 hours : where A and B are hours i.e if given hour is (2, 3) then A = 2 and B = 3 .
