Answer 1

Answer: 2929 π  inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference is given by= 2πr

Here r= 1010 inches

So Tip of minute hand moves= 2π (1010inch)

                                                = 2020 π inch for an hour

Now it comes from 12 to 33 o'clock=  1.45 hour so,

Tip of minute hand moves= 2020 π inch  x 1.45

Tip of minute hand moves= 2929 π  inch
