The tower at Philadelphia City Hall contains four clocks that have a radius of about 3.96 meters. Find how far the minute hand travels after each number of rotations around the clock face. Round to the nearest hundredth.

99.57 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The tower at Philadelphia City Hall contains four clocks that have a radius of about 3.96 meters

Question asked:

Find how far the minute hand travels after each number of rotations around the clock face.

Solution:

Radius, r = 3.96 meters

As we have to find distance traveled by minute hand, we will find circumference of circular clock:-

Hence, we found that at one rotation (distance traveled) of minute hand of each clock is 24.89 meters.

Now, we will find distance traveled by 4 minute hand of 4 clocks =

Therefore, minute hand travels 99.57 meters distance after each number of rotations around the clock face.

the answer is a
