Who invented the second hand on a clock?
The second hand on a clock was invented by Swiss clockmaker Jost Burgi in the late 16th century. Burgi is also credited with developing the first mechanical timepiece with a second hand.
Is the motion of the tip of the second hand of a clock equal to the motion of the entire second hand of the clock?
What do you mean with "motion of the entire second hand"? Please bear in mind that different parts of the hand move at different speeds. The closest thing to a "motion of the entire second hand" might be the motion of its center of mass. In this case, the answer is clearly "no". The center of mass is closer to the center than the tip, and moves slower.
What is the pace of system clock that is measured by the number of ticks per second called?
The pace of the system clock measured by the number of ticks per second is called the clock speed. This refers to how many processing cycles the clock completes in one second. It is often measured in hertz (Hz).
What do you call a clock's needle?
A clock's needle is typically called a "hand." Clocks usually have hour and minute hands that point to the current time.
How many radians does the second hand of a clock turn through in thirty second?
The second hand of a clock completes a full revolution every 60 seconds, which is equal to 2π radians. Therefore, in 30 seconds, the second hand turns through π radians.
Why is the second hand on a clock called a second hand?
Because it counts seconds.
What are the three hands on the clock called?
The hour hand, the minute hand and the second hand.
What is the second and long hand on a clock called?

What is the third hand on a clock or watch called?
There are 3 hands. The second hand, the minute hand and the hour hand.
Why is the third hand on the clock called a second hand?
Because it points at the seconds? hours minutes seconds
Which has more momentum a second hand on a clock or a minute hand on a clock?
the second hand
How many times does the second hand on a clock circle the clock in seven hours?
The second hand on the clock circles 420 times in 7 hours.
What is the angular velocity in radians per second of the second hand of a clock?
The angular velocity of the second hand of a clock is pi/30 radians per second.
What is the least count of clock if it has hours hand minutr hand and second hand?
its least count will be one second
How do you stop an analog clock from ticking?
put clock oil on the second hand.
Who invented the second hand on a clock?
The second hand on a clock was invented by Swiss clockmaker Jost Burgi in the late 16th century. Burgi is also credited with developing the first mechanical timepiece with a second hand.
How could you make a analog clock more precise?
add a second minute hand. If you could add a second minute hand to an analog clock, you would be able to increase the precision by allowing the time to be determined to the second.
