In a minute, how many degrees hour hand traverses?

  • A.0.5°
  • B.1°
  • C.1.5°
  • D.3°

Answer: A

The hour hand covers \( 360^{\circ} \) in twelve hours:

\[ \frac{360}{12} = 30^{\circ} \text{ per hour} \]

\[ \frac{30}{60} = 0.5^{\circ} \text{ per minute} \]

The minute hand, by contrast, does \( 6^{\circ} \) a minute - twelve times as fast.
