Answer:
C: 12.56 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the minute hand can move an equivalent of 60 minutes in any one revolution.
-10 minutes movement is equal to 1/6 the total distance and the circumference covered in that time is calculated as:
[tex]C=\pi D\\\\=\frac{1}{6}\pi \times (12\times 2)\\\\\\=12.56\ in[/tex]
Hence, over 10 minutes the minutes hand moves 12.56 inches away.
