Q:

At what time between 4 and 5 o'clock will the hands of a watch point in opposite directions?

A) 54 past 4	B) (53 + 7/11) past 4
C) (54 + 8/11) past 4	D) (54 + 6/11) past 4

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) (54 + 6/11) past 4

Explanation:

4 o'clock, the hands of the watch are 20 min. spaces apart.
To be in opposite directions, they must be 30 min. spaces apart.
Minute hand will have to gain 50 min. spaces.
55 min. spaces are gained in 60 min

50 min. spaces are gained in $\frac{60}{55} \times 50$ min. or $54 \frac{6}{11}$

Required time = $54 \frac{6}{11}$ min. past 4.

Q:

At 3.40, the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock form an angle of:

A) 110	B) 120
C) 130	D) 140

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 130

Explanation:

Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hrs. = 360º.

Angle traced by it in $\frac{11}{3}$ hrs = ${(\frac{360}{12} \times \frac{11}{3})}^{0}$ = $110^{0}$

Angle traced by minute hand in 60 min. = $360^{0}$

Angle traced by it in 40 min = ${(\frac{360}{60} \times 40)}^{0}$ = $240^{0}$

$\therefore$ Required angle (240 - 110)º = $130^{0}$

Q:

At what angle the hands of a clock are inclined at 15 minutes past 5?

A) 57.5 degrees	B) 67.5 degrees
C) 77.5 degrees	D) 87.5 degrees

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 67.5 degrees

Explanation:

Angle traced by hour hand in $\frac{21}{4}$ 21 hrs = ${(\frac{360}{12} \times \frac{21}{4})}^{0}$ = $157 \frac{1^{0}}{2}$

Angle traced by min. hand in 15 min = ${(\frac{360}{12} \times 15)}^{0}$ = $90^{0}$

$\therefore$ Required Angle = ${(157 \frac{1}{2})}^{0} - 90^{0}$ = $67 \frac{1^{0}}{2}$
