How many degrees will the minute-hand move, in the same time in which the second hand moves 300°?
8°
5°
4°
10°
6°
Second's Hand cover 360 degrees in 1 Minute
Time is taken by Second's hand to cover 300 degrees = 300/360 = 5/6 Minute
In 5/6 Minute, Minute Hand cover = 6 x 5/6 => 5 degree
We know that,
Second hand covers,
1sec-6°
?-300°. 300/6=50 sec,convert sec into minute 50/60=5/6 min.
Minute hand covers,
1min-6°
5/6min=6°*5/6=5°
Hence,the correct answer is 5°
