Answer:

The minutes hand travels 39.60 cm.

Explanation:

Note: a clock has a shape of a circle, the minutes hand is the radius, and the travel of the minutes hand forms a arc.

Length of an arc = ∅/360(2πr)

L = ∅/360(2πr).................... Equation 1π

Where L = length of an arc, ∅ = angle formed by an arc, r = radius of the arc.

Given:  ∅ = 252°, r = 9 cm, π = 3.143.

Substituting these values into equation 1,

L = 252/360(2×3.143×9)

L = 0.7×2×3.143×9

L = 39.60 cm.

Thus the minutes hand travels 39.60 cm.

7. What determines whether a charged object gains or loses electrons?
EleoNora [17]
7. The charged object can have two polarities, positive or negative which is determined by the configuration of electron orbitals of the material. If there are free orbitals, it will likely gain electrons and produce a negative charge. If there are free electrons on the outermost orbitals, these electrons will be lost and the material will have a positive charge.

The length of a planet's day is determined by it's
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: "People will say the length of a day is determined by just the rotation rate of a planet, but that isn’t entirely true. The orbit around its sun also factors in. What we define as a day is the time between when the Sun is highest in the sky until the next time the Sun is at the highest point in the sky. This isn’t just the time it takes the Earth to rotate once on its axis, though. This is because, as the Earth is rotating, it’s also moving relative to the Sun"
