The minute hand of a clock is 4 inches long. How far does the tip of the minute hand move in 35 minutes? If necessary, round the answer to two decimal places.

14.66 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for How far does the tip of the minute hand move in 35 minutes

The tip of a minute hand will always travels at 360 degrees in an hour ( 60 minutes)

Hence, the tip of the minute hand

distance will be calculated using this formula

Circumference of a circle=2*π*Radius* Clock Tip hand movement/Number of minutes per hour

Let plug in the formula

Circumference of a circle==2*π*4 inches*35 minutes/60 minutes

Circumference of a circle= =2*π*4 inches*0.58333

Circumference of a circle==14.659 inches

Circumference of a circle==14.66 inches (Approximately)

Therefore How far does the tip of the minute hand move in 35 minutes will be 14.58 inches
