Calculate the speed of tip of minutes hand of a clock, whose length is `7 cm`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `l = r = 7 cm xx 10^(-2)m`.
Taken by minutes' hand to complete one revolution, `T = 60 min = 60 xx 60 s = 3600 s`
speed, `v = (s)/(t) = (2 pi r)/(T) = 2 xx (22)/(7) xx (7 xx 10^(-2))/(60 xx 60) = (11)/(9) xx 10^(-4) = 1.22 xx 10^(-4)m//s`.
