[Link]'S NEWTON CLASSES JEE (MAIN & ADV.), MEDICAL + BOARD, NDA, IX & X Clock Test IMPORTANT NOTES (Minute hand and hour hand coincide once in every hour. They coincide 11 times in 12 hours and 2 times in 24 hours, They both do not coincide between 12 and 1 o¢lock Minute hand and hour hand are opposite once in every hour. Then the two hands are opposite in direction, distance between them is of 30 minutes. They make an angle of 180° with each other. They do it 11 times in 12 hours and 22 times in 24 hours, It doesnt happen between 6 and 7 otlock. Both hands minuteandhour) are perpendicular twice in every hour, They make an aggle of 90 [Link] in 12 hours and 44 times in 24 hours, In 1 minute, hour hand moves 1/2" and minute hhand moves 6°. In 1 hour, hour hand moves 30° and minute hand moves 360°. HANDS COINCIDE Ex.1_ At what time between 3 and 4 will the two hands coincide? Sol. At3 odlock the distance between the two hands is 15 minutes. When they are at zero minutes distance they coincide with each other. The time taken = 15 minutes Minute hand is $5 minutes ahead of hour hand {in 60 minutes 1 minute 15 minutes HANDS ARE OPPOSITE Ex2_ At what time between 2 and 3 will the two hands be opposite to each other? Sol. At 2 otlock the distance between the two hands is 10 minutes. When they are at 30 minutes distance they are opposite to each other. ‘The time taken (30 + 10) 40 minutes TA en ont Minute hand is $5 minutes ahead of hour hand oo 60 40 1 minute 40 minute =2and 43 minute 2and 132 Table — Hands are opposite 182 2&3 2&1 HANDS ARE PERPENDICULAR Ex.3 At what time between 4 and 5 will the hands be perpendicular? pura - 110034 SAAT eetHour hand moves 30" in 60 minutes. In 1 minute it moves 0.5" ‘At 4 otock the distance between the two hands is 20 minutes. When they are at 15 minutes distance they are perpendicular to each other. The time taken ANGLES ARE OF TWO TYPES Positive angle: Its obtained by moving from hour hand to minute band. Negative angle: It is obtained by movi hhand to hour hand. = 20415 Minute in 60 minutes, 35 minutes. is 55 minutes ahead of hour hand 1 minute Note: Both types of angles are 360" in total. fone angle is 35 minutes, known, other can be obtained by subtracting from 360? 2 mat Formula: Minutes of the given time are multiplied by co = a, hour hand is maltipled by 30 ...b, then MIRROR IMAGE OF CLOCK a“ bis the angle required. Ex.6 At4:30, what i the angle formed between hour hand and minute hand. 30 6s «| Jes Ex.7 At3: 15, whats the angle formed between hour 60-4:46=7:14 hand and minute hand, or 2 8S b= 4:46=7:14 Ex. The time in the clock is 12 : 35, then its mirror image will be ‘odloek, then to find the mirror image, time is subtracted by 11 : 60. 2.
