    CLOCKS

    FACTS AND FORMULAE FOR CLOCKS

    1. Minute Spaces The face or dial of clock is a circle whose


    circumference is divided into 60 equal parts, named minute spaces.

    2. Hour hand and minute hand A clock has two hands. The smaller
    hand is called the hour hand or short hand and the larger one is
    called minute hand or long hand.

    3. In 60 minutes, minute hand gains 55 minute spaces over the hour


    hand.
    (In 60 minutes, hour hand will move 5 minute spaces while the
    minute hand will move 60 minute spaces. In effect the space gain of
    minute hand with respect to hour hand will be 60 - 5 = 55 minutes.)
    FACTS AND FORMULAE FOR CLOCKS

    4. Both the hands of a clock coincide once in every hour.

    5. The hands of a clock are in the same straight line when they are
    coincident or opposite to each other.

    6. When the two hands of a clock are at right angles, they are 15
    minute spaces apart.

    7. When the hands of a clock are in opposite directions, they are 30


    minute spaces apart.
    FACTS AND FORMULAE FOR CLOCKS

    8. Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hrs = 360°

    9. Angle traced by minute hand in 60 min. = 360°.

    10. If a watch or a clock indicates 9.15, when the correct time is 9, it is


    said to be 15 minutes too fast.

    11. If a watch or a clock indicates 8.45, when the correct time is 9, it is


    said to be 15 minutes too slow.
    FACTS AND FORMULAE FOR CLOCKS

    12. The hands of a clock will be in straight line but opposite in direction,
    22 times in a day.

    13. The hands of a clock coincide 22 times in a day.

    14. The hands of a clock are straight 44 times in a day.

    15. The hands of a clock are at right angles 44 times in a day.


    FACTS AND FORMULAE FOR CLOCKS

    16. The two hands of a clock will be together between and o clock at
    minutes past o clock.

    17. The two hands of a clock will be in the same straight line but not
    together between and o clock
    FACTS AND FORMULAE FOR CLOCKS

    18. Angle between hands of a clock

    When the minute hand is behind the hour hand, the angle between
    the two hands at minutes past o clock
    degree

    When the minute hand is ahead of the hour hand, the angle
    between the two hands at minutes past o clock
    degree
    FACTS AND FORMULAE FOR CLOCKS

    19. The two hands of the clock will be at right angles between and o' clock at
    minutes past 'o clock

    20. If the minute hand of a clock overtakes the hour hand at intervals of minutes of
    correct time, the clock gains or loses in a day by

    21. Between and o' clock, the two hands of a clock are minutes apart at
    minutes past 'o clock
    Ex 1.
    Find the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock when the
    time is 3.25 ?
    Ans.
    Time is 03:25
    i.e., ;
    Since the minute hand is ahead of the hour hand, so the angle between them is
    degress
    Ex 2.
    At what time between 2 and 3 o’ clock will the hands of a clock be together ?
    Ans.
    The two hands of a clock will be together between 𝐻 and (𝐻+1)′o clock at
    minutes past 𝐻′o clock
    So, then

    Therefore, the hands will coincide at mins. past 2


    Ex 3.
    At what time between 4 and 5 o’clock will the hands of a clock be at right angle ?
    Ans.
    The two hands of the clock will be at right angles between and o' clock at
    minutes past 'o clock
    Since, then

    Case (i) : When minute hand is 15 mins spaces behind the hour hand
    mins

    Case (ii): When the minute hand is 15 mins spaces ahead of the hour hand:
    mins
    Ex 4.
    Find at what time between 8 and 9 o’ clock will the hands of a clock be in the same
    straight line but not together ?
    Ans.
    The two hands of a clock will be in the same straight line but not together
    between and o clock

    Since , so the hands of a clock be the same straight line but not together is
    minspast 8.
