What is the angular position in radians of the minute hand of a clock at 2:55?
2 answers:
Refer to the diagram shown.
There are twelve 5-minute divisions.
Each 5-minute division is equal to 360°/12 = 30°.
By convention, angles are measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis.
The angular position of the minute hand at 2:55 is
θ = 90° + 30° = 120°
Because 360° = 2π radians, therefore
θ = (120/360)*2π = (2π)/3 radians = 2.0944 radians
Answer: (2π)/3 radians ofr 2.0944 radians.

Answer:
490,400 J
Explanation:
Mass of first car, m = 1000 kg
Mass of second car, M = 1200 kg
velocity of first car, u = 20 m/s east
velocity of second car, U = 22 m/s west
The formula for the kinetic energy is
where, m is the body and v be the velocity of the body.
Total kinetic energy is given by
k = 490,400 J
Thus, the total kinetic energy of the system is 490,400 J.
