    If a watch runs 5 min fast every hour, then the angle traversed by a second hand in 1 min is

    A)  \[360{}^\circ \]

    B)  \[360.5{}^\circ \]

    C)  \[390{}^\circ \]

    D)  \[380{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    According to question, \[\therefore \] In 1 h, min hand runs fast = 5 min \[\,=\frac{360{}^\circ }{12}=30{}^\circ \]             \[\therefore \] In 1 min, minute hand runs fast \[=\frac{5}{12}=\frac{1}{12}\min \] \[=\frac{30{}^\circ }{60}=0.5{}^\circ \] \[\therefore \] In 1 min, angle traversed by a second hand \[\,=360{}^\circ +0.5{}^\circ =360.5{}^\circ \]
