Angular Variables

The difference between angular speed of minute hand and second hand of a clock is (in rad/s)

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Second hand: ωs=2π60=60π1800\omega_s = \frac{2\pi}{60} = \frac{60\pi}{1800} rad/s.
  2. Minute hand: ωm=2π3600=π1800\omega_m = \frac{2\pi}{3600} = \frac{\pi}{1800} rad/s.
  3. ωs−ωm=59π1800\omega_s - \omega_m = \frac{59\pi}{1800} rad/s.
  4. So the answer is (b) 59π1800\frac{59\pi}{1800}.
