Question
The minute hand on a watch is 6 cm long. If after 12:30 the tip of the minute hand
has traveled a distance of 22 cm, it can be stated that:
a) The angular velocity of the tip of the minute hand is greater than the
angular velocity of a point located half the length of the minute hand.
b) The tangential velocity of the tip of the minute hand and of a point located
half the length of the minute hand have the same magnitude.
c) The distance traveled by the tip of the minute hand would make it possible
to predict the end time of the watch.
d) The tangential acceleration of the tip of the minute hand and a point
located half the length of the minute hand have the same magnitude.
