Question

about pendulum clock

Answer 1

A pendulum clock is a clock that uses a pendulum, a swinging weight, as its timekeeping element. they help keep time in old-fashioned clocks.In 1656, Christiaan Huygens, a Dutch scientist, made the first pendulum clock, regulated by a mechanism with a “natural” period of oscillation.From 1656 until the 1930's the pendulum clock was the most precise time keeping instrument available until the 1940's when the QuartzPendulum clocks have been used to keep time since 1656. Pendulum clockswere the first clocks having sort.

Answer 2

A pendulum clock is a clock that uses a pendulum, a swinging weight, as its timekeeping element. The advantage of a pendulum for timekeeping is that it is a harmonic oscillator; it swings back and forth in a precise time interval dependent on its length, and resists swinging at other rates. From its invention in 1656 by Christiaan Huygens until the 1930s, the pendulum clock was the world's most precise timekeeper, accounting for its widespread use. Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries pendulum clocks in homes, factories, offices and railroad stations served as primary time standards for scheduling daily life, work shifts, and public transportation, and their greater accuracy allowed the faster pace of life which was necessary for the Industrial Revolution.
