Question

what type of oscillations are used in atomic clocks​

Answer 1

Answer:

Isochronous oscillators

Explanation:

Isochronous oscillators, from the pendulum to the precise oscillations of a caesium atoms in an atomic clock, have an obvious practical use in the measurement of time. But there is more to time than making accurate clocks.

Answer 2

Atomic Clocks​:

Explanation:

• A form of a clock that employs the resonance frequencies of atoms (typically cesium or rubidium) to keep time with great precision is known as an atomic clock. The frequency of microwave electromagnetic radiation is used to control the electrical components of atomic clocks. A clock that measures time by measuring the frequency of atoms' radiation is known as an atomic clock.

• Atomic clocks rely on periodic vibrations.

• Cesium is the most prevalent element in atomic clocks, which provide the most precise timing. The second has been defined in terms of electron transitions in a cesium-133 atom since 1967.
