The velocity of the tip of the second hand is 0.0158 m/s
Explanation:
First of all, we need to calculate the angular velocity of the second hand.
We know that the second hand completes one full circle in
T = 60 seconds
Therefore, its angular velocity is:
Now we can calculate the velocity of a point on the tip of the hand by using the formula
where
is the angular velocity
r = 15 cm = 0.15 m is the radius of the circle (the distance of the point from the centre of rotation)
Substituting,

If this case could ever happen, the speed would follow from this formula:
with f the frequency and lambda the wavelength. We are give a wavelength of 10m. The frequencies of the visible light can range between 400 to about 790 Terahertz, so let us pick a middle point of 600 THz ("green-ish") as a "representative."
The speed of such a wave would have to be 6e+15 m/s (which would be 7 orders of magnitude higher than the universal speed of light constant)
