- Question
- In a clock, the angle between the hour hand and minute hand at 5 h 10 min, is?
Options- A. 60°
- B. 95°
- C. 120°
- D. 90°
- Correct Answer
- 95°
ExplanationThe angle between hour hand and minute hand at 5 O'clock = 5 x 30° = 150°
Minute hand move in 10 min = 2 x 30° = 60°
Hour hand move in 10 min = 30°/6 = 5°
? Angle between hour hand and minute hand at 5 h 10 min = 150° - 60° + 5deg; = 95° - 1. If a month in an year start with Monday, then the date of the fourth day after the second Saturday in that month, will be?

Correct Answer: 180°
Explanation:
Since, in a clock hour hand completes an angle of 360° in 12 h and there is a gap of 6 h between 8 am and 2 pm, so in 6 h, hour hand completes an angles of 180°.
Correct Answer: 88/11 s
Explanation:
There are 11 intervals when the clock strikes 12.
Time taken for 11 intervals = 48 s
? Time taken for 1 interval = (48/11)s
In order to strike 3, there are 2 intervals, for which the time taken = (48/11) x 2) = 88/11 s
Correct Answer: 7:30
Explanation:
Angle of 360° is covered by hour hand in 12 h .
So, angle of 135° is covered by hour hand in 12/360° x 135° = 4.5 h
Thus, required time = (3 + 4.5)h = 7.5 h = 7 : 30
Correct Answer: 12 : 10
Explanation:
Director came at 12 : 15.
Steno came at 12 : 40.
Since, steno was late by 30 min to the meeting.
? Meeting time 12 : 10
Correct Answer: 42°
Explanation:
Since, angle between two number is 360°/12 = 30°
When the time is 3:25 pm, the minute hand will be at 5 and will have moved 60° from 3 and hour hand would be between 3 and 4 it will move 30° in 60 min and so in 25 min it would have moved 30 x 25/60 = 12.5°
So, angle between two hand will be 60 - 12.5 = 47.5°
Correct Answer: 7 : 00 am Friday
Explanation:
Time from 7 am on a day to 6 am after 3 days is 95 h.
Now , 23 h 45 min of the clock in question = 24 h of correct clock
i..e., 95/4 h of the clock in question = 24 h of correct clock
? 95 h of the clock in question = (24 x 4/95 x 95) h of correct clock = 96 h
So, the correct time is 96 h from 7 am, Monday, ie., 7 am, Friday.
Correct Answer: 164/11 min past 9
Explanation:
At 9 o'clock, the hour hand is at 9 and the minute hand is at 12. it means that the two hands are 15 min spaces apart .To be in the same straight line (but not together ), they will be 30 min space apart .
? The minute hand will have to gain (30 - 15) = 15 min space over the hour hand .
As we Know, 55 min spaces are gained in 60 min.
? 15 min will be gained in (60/55 x 15) min = 180/11 = 164 /11 min
Hence, the hands will be in the same straight line but not together at 164/ 11 min past 9.
Correct Answer: 480/11 min past 2
Explanation:
Given that n = 2 and (n + 1) = 3(n < 6)
The hands will be at the same straight line at
? (5n + 30) x 12/11 min past n.
? (5 x 2 + 30 ) x 12/11 min past 2.
? (10 + 30) x 12/11 min past 2.
? 40 x 12/11 min past 2.
? 480/11 min past 2.
