The Hour Hand Riddle 🕰️
A clock’s hour hand is exactly on the 12 at noon. It then moves at its normal speed, and after a while, it is exactly 180 degrees opposite its starting point. How much time has passed when this happens?
The Hour Hand Riddle
Hint
The key to solving this is knowing how the hour hand moves. The hour hand moves 30 degrees per hour (because there are 360 degrees on the clock and 12 hours). Since you’re looking for when the hour hand is 180 degrees opposite its starting position, think about how many hours it would take for the hour hand to move half the clock (180 degrees).
