Clarify that it's duration, not time, that's requested, and that the minute hand is moving forwards

| Nov 28, 2019 at 12:55 | comment | added | hellopeach | Are you sure you mean the second hand is going backwards while the minute hand is going forwards? That sounds quite an... unnatural question? :P When I first look at the question, I think it sounds like you are rewinding the clock's second hand, and that way the minute hand will go backwards with it too, just like when you adjust time on a clock with minute hand and hour hand, when you turn back the minute hand, the hour hand goes back with it too. Just a thought :P | |

| Nov 27, 2019 at 11:51 | comment | added | Ver Nick | Does the minute hand also go backwards? | |
| Nov 27, 2019 at 11:49 | comment | added | user64076 | As I wrote question is about seconds hand and minute hand. Seconds hand go backwards. And anwer should be with miliseconds. | |
| Nov 27, 2019 at 11:47 | comment | added | F1Krazy | Do you mean if the hour hand went backwards? Clocks usually have an hour hand and minute hand. Sometimes they have a second hand as well, but if that went backwards then the answer would be trivial. | |
