The second hand will have moved 12° in 5 seconds, the minute hand 1° in 5 seconds, and the hour hand would move almost 0.0167 (0.016 and the six is recurring).
Angular displacement is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. The direction of angular displacement is determined by the axis of rotation and follows the right-hand rule, while the magnitude is given by the angle of rotation. As a vector, angular displacement can be added, subtracted, and resolved into components, making it useful in calculations that involve rotational motion.
Second hand . . . 360 degrees per minuteMinute hand . . . 360 degrees per hourHour hand . . . 360 degrees per 12 hours = 30 degrees per hour
If the second hand began at 12, 1200 seconds would pass in this period, or 20 minutes.
Angular velocity has units of (angle per time), usually stated in radians per second. (1 whole revolution = 2 pi radians) Assuming the watch is operating properly, the second hand turns once per minute. 1 rev/minute = (2 pi) / (60 seconds) = pi/30radians per second. This is usually good enough for most physicists, but if they demand a number, it's easy to work it out: pi = 3.14159 (rounded) Angular velocity = pi/30 = 0.10472 radians per second. Or if you really want the physicist to take notice, tell him "104.72 milliradians per second".
It is used to measure the number of seconds in a minute (60 seconds).
Angular speed = 2*pi radians per 60 seconds = pi/30 radians per second.
The angular velocity of the second hand of a clock is pi/30 radians per second.

That motion is called angular motion. The angular speed of the second hand is 2pi radians per minute.
