OM and OP will coincide a second time after 120 seconds. You could visualize it as ray OP moving at 3 degrees/second relative to OM.
Using this visualization, we find that OM makes 30*60*3/360 rotations (minutes * 60 * rotational speed/360 degrees in a rotation), which is 15, and that OP makes 30*60*6/360 or 30 rotations, which is 15 more than OM.
I believe you will need to find what -0.125 of an inch is, subtract that from 16, then divide that into 11.
It has a rotational symmetry of 6
So minimum number of degrees = 360 / 6
= 60 degrees
Each container is 50 pounds, forget about the second sentence it's just there to confuse you. One ton is 2,000 pounds, half of that is 1,000 lbs. 1,000 divided by 20 is 50. 50 pounds each.
