Calculate the speed of the tip of second's hand of a watch of length `1.5 cm`.

A

0.32 cm `s^(-1)`

B

1 cm `s^(-1)`

C

0.16 cm `s^(-1)`

D

0.5 cm `s^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Here, radius r = 1.5 cm, Time taken by second.s hand of a watch to go once around the circle, t = 60 s
from `v=(s)/(t)=(2pi r)/(t)=2xx22/7xx1.5/60=0.16 cm s^(-1)`
