Best Answer

Angular velocity = angle covered / time taken

Hence angular velocity of the hour hand = 2pi/ 12*3600 = 1.4 x 10-4 rad/s

Why does a second hand of a clock have a slower velocity?

No the 'second hand' of a clock has a higher velocity, it makes one rotation each minute, while the minute hand makes on rotation each hour and the hour hand makes one rotation every 12 hours.


Compare the angular velocity of the earth around its own axis with that of the hour hand of a clock?

Earth's rotation = 1 rev / day. Hour hand = 1 rev / 12 hours = 2 revs / day. The angular velocity of the hour hand is double that of the earth. Numbers: Earth = 2 pi / 24 hours = 2 pi / 86,400 = 7.27 x 10-5 sec-1 Hour hand = 2 pi / 12 hours = 2 pi / 43,200 = 1.45 x 10-4 sec-1
