The rotational speed of the minute hand of a watch is:

w= anglular displacement/ time
w=2pi radian in a circle/ 3600 seconds in one rotation
The reason I put 3600 seconds in the denominator is because it takes that many seconds for the minute hand of a clock to make one full revolution

60minutes X 60second= 3600

please tell me if I am right or not. If not please tell me what to correct. Thank you. :confused:
