How clock is working?

What is clock?



A clock is an instrument which shows the time. The word clock is derived from Celtic words clagan and clocca which means “bell”. A clock is a machine which works on determined set of orders.
Simply, you all are familiar with the Clock. In our day to day life, we all habited with the clock.  Now a day, we use digital clock on behalf of analog clock. Analog clock also we use as per our requirement.

How clock is working?

In our day to day life, we use clock but we don’t that how clock is working? All oscillating clock, mechanical clock, digital and analog clocks are works similarly and can be divided into analogous parts. They consists of a object which repeats the same motion over and over again, an oscillator, with a precisely constant time interval between each repetition, or “beat”. Attached to the oscillator the controller device,  Which sustain the oscillator motion by replacing the energy to it loses to friction. Oscillation done by oscillator is converts into series of pulse. The pulse are then counted by some of counters, and number count then converted into units, hours, minutes, seconds etc.


Different kinds of clocks are working differently. Mean their operating principle is same but their working types are different…
