Q.The hour hand of a clock rotates through an angle of \(\cfrac{\pi}{6}\) radians in 2 hours.

The statement is false.
The hour hand of a clock rotates through an angle of \(2\pi\) radians in 12 hours. \(\therefore\) In 2 hours, it rotates through \(\frac{2\pi \times 2}{12} = \frac{\pi}{3}\) radians. Since the hand moves clockwise, the angle will be \(-\frac{\pi}{3}\) radians.
