what is the frequecy of the 2nd hand of a clock?

Question

what is the frequecy of the minute hand and the hour hand

Answer 1

second hand: 60 seconds / cycle = 0.01667 Hz
minute hand: 60 minutes / cycle = 3600 seconds / cycle = 2.777x10^-4 Hz
hour hand: 12 hours / cycle = 2.315x10^-5 Hz

Answer 2

The second hand makes the cycle in one minute, or 60 seconds (the period). The frequency is the reciprocal of the period, so the frequency is 1/60 per second or 0.01666 hertz

Answer 3

Frequency has units of 1/time.

Assuming we're dealing in MKS units (where time is in seconds):

Second hand moves once per second, so the frequency is 1

Hour hand moves once around the clock every 3600 seconds, so its frequency is 1/3600.
