What is the clock rate of a laptop?
Laptops do not have a specific clock speed. The clock speed of the specific processor that is in the laptop determines the clock rate of the computer. For example, my computer runs at a clock speed of 2 GHz. Some computers even have clock speeds close to 4 GHz.
How do you start a pendulum clock?

How long to travel by boat 2110 nautical miles at 10 knots per hour?
1 knot = 1 nautical mile per hourtime = distance ÷ speed= 2110 nautical miles / 10 nautical miles/hour= 211 hours= 8 days 19 hours.As 1 knot is 1 nautical mile per hour: a unit of speed, 1 knot per hour would be a rate of change of speed, ie an acceleration.
What unit speed is used to measure the speed of ships?
