The question seems incomplete, as the length of the hour hand isn't given ;

If the tip of the hour hand is taken as 30mm

Answer:

534.1 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2 hours ; cycle performed :

2/ 12

Circumference of a circle = 2 * pi *r

Circumference = 2 * pi * 30 = 60pi

Distance traveled : 60pi * 2/12 = 120pi/ 12 =10pi

The minute hand travels 2 comply cycle in 2 hours

150% taller than short hand :

1.5 * 30 = 45 mm

Distance traveled : 2 (2 * pi * 45) = 180pi

(180pi - 10pi) = 170pi

170π = 534.07075

= 534.1 mm
