type 2 position of hands of the clock Detailed Explanation And More Example

Answer: (b)

Clearly, the minute hand traverses 65 minutes in 1 hour.

Therefore, Required angle = (360/60 × 65). = 390.

Answer: (c)

The duration from 1.00 p.m. to 10.00 p.m. is 9 hours and during each of these 9 hours the hands of a clock are at right angles twice.

So, required number = 9 × 2 = 18.

Answer: (c)

In 12 hours, they are at right angles 22 times

Therefore, In 24 hours, they are at right angles 44 times.

Answer: (c)

The hands of a clock coincide 11 times in every 12 hours (Since between 11 and 1, the coincide only once, i.e. at 12 O' clock).

Answer: (c)

Both the hands are 15 min spaces apart at 9 O' clock. To be together between 9 and 10 min O' clock hand has to gain 45 min.

Now, minute hand gains 55 min in 60 min. Therefore, it will gain 45 min in $60/55 × 45 = 49 1/11 min$

Therefore, the hands will be together at 49 $1/11$ min past 9.
