The hands are at right angle 22 times in a 12 hours so, in 24 hours they will be 44 times at right angle so (d) is correct.

Q 2 - At 3.40, the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock forms an angle of?

Answer : C

Explanation

$\frac{360}{12} \times \frac{11}{3}$ = 110^o and $\frac{360}{60} \times 40$ = 240^o

Required angle 240 – 110 = 130^o

Q 3 - The angle between hands of a clock while time is 20 minute past 2 is.

Answer : D

Explanation

the angle through which the hour hand has turned though = (20 × $\frac{1}{2}$) = 10^o

Therefore required angle = 60^o - 10^o = 50^o

Q 4 - At what time between 10 O`clock and 2 O`clock will the hands of a clock be in opposite direction?

A - 36$\frac{2}{11}$ min past 1

B - 38$\frac{2}{11}$ min past 1

C - 37$\frac{2}{11}$ min past 1

D - 39$\frac{2}{11}$ min past 1

Answer : B

Explanation

$\frac{\left ( 5n+30 \right )\times12}{11}$; n = 6

38$\frac{2}{11}$ min past 1

Q 5 - In 12 hrs, how many times both hands in opposite direction can be observed?

Answer : B

Explanation

Since in each interval, hands come opposite to each other once at a time. In 12 hours, there are 11 intervals, hence hands will be 11 times opposite in direction.

Q 6 - At what time between 9 and 10 O`clock will the hands of a clock be in the same straight line but not together?

A - 15$\frac{4}{11}$ min past 9

B - 16$\frac{4}{11}$ min past 9

C - 17$\frac{4}{11}$ min past 9

D - 18$\frac{4}{11}$ min past 9
