Question

What are the benefits of alarm clocks or present days
clocks comparing with the sand clocks , water clocks and
sundials?

Answer 1

Answer:

A water clock measures time by measuring the flow of water.

Explanation:

• Torricelli's law is the basic principle necessary to investigate such clocks if viscosity is ignored. Water clocks are classified into two types: inflow and outflow.
• A container is filled with water in an outflow water clock, and the water is drained slowly and evenly out of the container. This bottle features marks that indicate the passage of time.
• As the water exits the container, an observer may see where the water is level with the lines and calculate the amount of time that has elapsed. An inflow water clock functions similarly to a flow water clock, except that instead of flowing out of the container, the water fills the indicated container.
• As the container fills, the observer can see where the water meets the lines and calculate the amount of time that has elapsed.
