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:Same magnitude
Explanation:
When ball is dropped from shoulder height h then velocity at the bottom is given by
if it makes elastic collision then it will acquire the same velocity and riser up to the same height
If m is the mass of ball then impulse imparted is given by
Thus impulse imparted by gravity and Floor will have same magnitude of impulse but direction will be opposite to each other.
