What term describes the direction opposite to the movement of the clock's hands?
Correct Answer:
Counterclockwise
Explanation:
The direction opposite to the movement of the clock's hands describes rotational direction, not orientation. A clock’s hands travel in a clockwise path, from the top toward the right, then downward and left, and back up. The opposite rotation is counterclockwise (also called anti-clockwise), which would move from the top toward the left and around the face in the opposite sense. Horizontal and vertical refer to flat orientation (left-right or up-down), not to the way something rotates. So the term that describes the opposite direction is counterclockwise.
