Q 1 - At what angle the hands of a clock are inclined at 15 minute past 5?
Answer : B
Explanation
Angle 15 minute past 5 = 60 + 7$\frac{1}{2}$ = 67$\frac{1}{2}^{\circ}$
Q 2 - If a clock started at noon, then the angle turned by hour hand at 3.45 pm is?
Answer : D
Explanation
3 + $\frac{45}{6}$ = (3 + $\frac{3}{4}$)×30 = 112$\frac{1}{2}^{\circ}$
Q 3 - Four bells ring at interval of 30 min, 1 hrs, 1$\frac{1}{2}$hrs, 1 hrs and 45 min respectively. All the bell rings simultaneously at 12 noon they will again ring simultaneously at.
Answer : D
Explanation
L.C.M of 30, 60, 90 and 105 =1260 hence all the bells ring after 1260 min i.e at 9 am
Q 4 - A clock is started at noon by 15 min past 5, the hour hand has turned through?
Answer : A
Explanation
$\frac{360}{12}$ × $\frac{21}{4}$ = 157$\frac{2}{4}$
Q 5 - When two hands are in opposite direction then they are apart by how many minutes?
Answer : C
Explanation
Generally the two hands are always 30 min spaces apart
Q 6 - If a clock strikes at 7 O`clock taking 9 sec in order to strike 10 at the same rate what should be the time taken?
Answer : A
Explanation
Time taken for 1 interval = 9 sec
Time taken for 9 intervals = 9 × 9 = 81 sec.
Q 7 - What is the exact time between 8 and 9 O`clock when hands are coincide together?
A - 41$\frac{7}{11}$ minute past 8
B - 42$\frac{7}{11}$ minute past 8
Answer : C
Explanation
To get together the minute hand has to travel through 40 minute space.
We know that minute hand gains 55 minute in 60 minute, 40 minute can be gained in
40 × $\frac{12}{11}$ = 43$\frac{7}{11}$ minute past 8
Q 8 - If a clock started at noon then what should be the angle at 7.25 pm?
Answer : B
Explanation
(7 + $\frac{25}{12}$) × 30 = $\frac{445}{2}$ = 222$\frac{5}{2}$
Q 9 - Calculate the angle between the hour hand and minute hand of a clock at 5.40.
Answer : D
Explanation
Required angle = 240 – 170 = 70o
Q 10 - At what time between 7 O`clock and 8 O`clock will the hands of a clock be in same straight line but not together?
A - 6$\frac{5}{11}$ min past 7
B - 5$\frac{5}{11}$ min past 7
Answer : B
Explanation
$\frac{\left ( 5n - 30 \right ) \times 12}{11}$ min past n(n>6) here n = 7 so, 5$\frac{5}{11}$ min past 7 is correct.
