1. Find the angle between the minute and hour hands of a clock when the time is 7 : 20 AM.
2. For each natural number k , let Ck denote the circle with radius k cm and centre at the
origin. On the circle Ck , a particle moves k cm in the anticlockwise sense. After completing
its motion on Ck , the particle moves on Ck 1 in the radial direction. The motion of the particle
continues in this manner. The particle starts at 1, 0 . If the particle crosses the positive x-
axis for the first time on the circle Cn , find the value of n.
