counter-clockwise It sounds as if you might be asking: How often are the hands of a clock pointing in opposite directions (at exactly 180 degrees)? If that is the question, the answer is: Over the course of a 24 hour day, it will happen 22 times. The reason it's not 24: It happens, usually, once after every hour. But, after 5, the next occurance is right at 6. Then, the next occurance is after 7. So you don't have 3 separate occurances after 5, after 6, and after 7. If this isn't what you meant, it was fun answering anyway.
The term is counter clockwise.
It's the opposite direction of the normal rotation of the hands of a clock. Looking at a clock face, the hands travel over the numbers 1,2,3,4 etc - counter-clockwise they's move in the reverse direction - 4,3,2,1 etc.
counterclockwise has 16 letters is the word.
The word anticlockwise, can be seen from the prefix anti which literally means against.For example in a clock a clockwise direction moves or proceeds to the same direction for example in trigonometric ratios or the wall clock. This means anti clock wise is proceeding to the direction or the opposite direction.

Clockwise is the direction in which the hands of a clock move - from left to right. It is also known as the direction that is the same as the typical movement of the hands on a clock face, going from 12 to 3 to 6 to 9.
It's generally assumed that the direction clock hands move is derived from the movement of the shadow around a sundial. In the southern hemisphere, that movement is opposite from that of the northern hemisphere. If clockmaking had developed in Australia so that they became dominant in that craft, it is likely that clocks would be running in the opposite direction.

in the opposite direction to the way in which the hands of a clock move around.
Turning something 'clockwise' would be turning it in the direction the hands on a clock turns. 'Counter-clockwise' would be turning it the opposite direction of a clock. I always remember anti-clockwise from clockwise, by which way a clock turns for clockwise, and the opposite way of a clock turning for anti-clockwise.
An anticlockwise moment is a force that causes an object to rotate in a counter-clockwise direction around a fixed point or axis. It is a type of torque that creates angular acceleration in the opposite direction to the clockwise rotation.
Clockwise is the direction that follows the movement of the hands on a clock. In terms of arrows, it would be a direction that goes from the top to the right, then down, and finally to the left.
