How many times does a clock strike a day?

In 12-hour striking, used most commonly in striking clocks today, the clock strikes once at 1:00 A.M., twice at 2:00 A.M., continuing in this way up to twelve times at 12:00 mid-day, then starts again, striking once at 1:00 P.M., twice at 2:00 P.M., up to twelve times at 12:00 midnight.

How many times will a clock strike in one week if it strikes the appropriate number of times in each hour?

Clock will strike 1 time at 1, 2 times at 2, 3 times at 3, and so on up through 12 times at 12. This makes 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12=78 times every 12 hours. i.e. it strikes (78 x 2) = 156 times in 24 hours.

At what time between 9 and 10 o’clock will the hands of a watch be together?

To be together between 9 and 10 o’clock, the minute hand has to gain 45 minute spaces. 55 minute spaces gained in 60 minutes. The hands are together at 49 (1/11) minutes past 9. Hence, the correct answer is 49 (1/11) minutes past 9.

How many times do the hands of a clock points towards each other in a day?

Correct Option: D The hands of a clock point towards each other 11 times in every 12 h (because between 5 and 7, they point towards each other only once at 6 O’clock). Therefore, in a day, the hands points 22 times in all, towards each other.

At what time between 10 o’clock and 11 o’clock will the hands of a clock be together past 10?

10 h 9 min 22 sec.

At what time between 10 and 11 o’clock are the hands of a clock together?

Thus, the correct option is B. 10 h 9 min 14 sec. Note: After obtaining the answer in minutes and seconds we have added it to the 10 hours as, we have to find the clock symmetric with respect to the vertical line between 10 o’clock and 11 o’clock.

How many times does a clock strike at 1 o’clock?

A clock strikes once at 1 o’clock, twice at 2 o’clock and thrice at 3 o’clock, and so on. If it takes 12 seconds to strike at 5 o’clock, what is the time taken by it to strike at 10 o’clock?

How many times does the hand strike in 24 hours?

In 12 hour cycle, in each hour, hands strike once (it means it should be 12 times in 12 hours) but b/t 11:00 to 1:00 it strikes only once (i.e. at 12:00) instead of twice (hence, hands strikes only 11 times in 12 hours) So in 24 hours, hands strikes only 22 times.

How long does it take to complete 3 strikes at 4/3?

It takes 6 seconds to complete 3 strikes at 4 O’clock since the first strike occurs at zero time. Therefore the time to complete the remaining 3 strikes is 6/3 or 2 seconds per strike.
