What is the angular velocity of a hour and minute hand of a clock?With Explanations plz best explanation.

Question

Eshan · Answer

Dear student,

The angular displacement of each of the hour and minute hand is $2\pi radians$ for one complete rotation.

The time taken for this one complete rotation by the hour hand is 1 hour= $3600s$

Hence the angular velocity of hour hand is $\dfrac{2\pi}{3600}rad/s=\dfrac{\pi}{1800}rad/s$

Similary angular velocity of the minute hand is $\dfrac{2\pi}{60}rad/s=\dfrac{\pi}{30}rad/s$
