Hey fend
A sand clock can be looked at and the time will be known immediately. You do not need to know how to tell time with a sand clock.
It cannot be used to tell the time of the day. It can only be used to tell the time interval that has passed. And if the flame is blown out, it doesn't work at all.
Hope this helps u frnd

Answer:
Sand clocks are sometimes called hourglasses. Not all sand clocks measure hours. Some are made to measure as short as 3 minutes. It works on the principle that gravity causes the grains of sand to flow through a small neck in the glass container. The disadvantage is that they had to be on flat surfaces to work properly.
