Calculate the angular speed of the second hand and hour hand of the clock?
Step 1:Finding the angular velocity of second hand:
For the second hand of the clock,
One complete revolution takes 60 seconds and the distance covered will be where r is the radius of the clock and
Angular displacement in one revolution will be
So the angular velocity() will be given by,
Step 2: Finding the angular velocity of the hour hand:
For hour hand, it takes 12 hours for one complete revolution.
Angular displacement in one revolution will be
Hence, the angular speed of the second hand and hour hand of the clock will be 0.10 rad/s and respectively.
