Q. The ratio of angular speeds of minute hand and hour hand of a watch is
Motion in a Plane
A
$6: 1$
B
$12: 1$
C
$60: 1$
D
$1: 60$
Solution:
$\omega_{ mh }=$ Angular speed of minute hand
$\omega_{ hh }=$ Angular speed of hour hand
$\omega_{ mh }=\frac{2 \pi}{60\, m }=\frac{2 \pi}{60 \times 60} rad\, s ^{-1}$
$\omega_{ hh }=\frac{2 \pi}{12\, h }=\frac{2 \pi}{12 \times 60 \times 60} rad\, s ^{-1}$
$\frac{\omega_{ mh }}{\omega_{ hh }}=\frac{\frac{2 \pi}{60 \times 60}}{\frac{2 \pi}{12 \times 60 \times 60}}=\frac{1}{1} \times \frac{12}{1}$
$\omega_{ mh }: \omega_{ hh } \Rightarrow 12: 1$
