One of the most metallic metals named for its sky blue spectral lines atomic clocks using this element are accurate to 5 sec in 300 years or 1 sec in 60 years?
The element used in highly accurate atomic clocks is cesium. It is radioactive and has a well-know half life. This element seems to work the best in this manner.
Does the whole world change there clocks every year?
No all the countries do not change the time every year.
How do you figure atomic weight?
Atomic mass - Atomic weight are the same , so look at your periodic table and below every element it will give you atomic mass.
How many neutral atoms does atomic number 117 and atomic mass of 294 have?
1. Every atom has a unique atomic number.
Does every state in the US turn their clocks back?
No. Arizona does not participate in Daylight Saving Time. <><><> Nor does Hawaii.
What is used in making atomic clocks that lose one second every 300 years?
Perhaps caesium (cesium) is the answer.
Who invented the atomic clock?
The first atomic clock was invented in 1948 by the US Bureau of Standards.The first practical atomic clock was invented by English physicist Louis Essen in the 1955.Atomic clocks use the energy changes that take place in atoms to keep track of time. Atomic clocks are so accurate that they lose or gain no more than 1 second once every 2 or 3 million years.The most accurate, modern-day atomic clocks will neither lose nor gain a second in 168 million years.
How often do digital atomic clocks need a new battery?
Digital atomic clocks should only need a new battery every two or three years.
Which is the most accurate measurement of time?
The most accurate measurement of time is provided by atomic clocks, which are based on the vibration of atoms, such as cesium or rubidium. These clocks are used as the international standard for timekeeping and are incredibly precise, losing only a second every few million years.

The element used in highly accurate atomic clocks is cesium. It is radioactive and has a well-know half life. This element seems to work the best in this manner.
Really weird thing happenning clocks changing time by themselves?
Yes, that happens to all my clocks and watches. Every second the time changes!
There are 2 clocks The red clock is broken and doesn't run at all The blue clock loses one second every 1 second Which clock would be more likely to give the correct time?
Staying at a fixed time position, both the red and blue clocks will show the correct time twice a day (every 24 hours). So both clocks are equally likely to give the correct time.
How do the hands move on the clocks?
A clock moves clockwise with three hands; one that moves every second, sixty seconds, and 60 minutes.
You have two grandfather clocks One must be wound every 6 days the other every 14 days you wind up both clocks on December 15 When is the next time you will have to wind both of the clocks on the sam?
On January 26th ... 42 days later ... you'll wind the first clockfor the 7th time, and the second clock for the 3rd time.
When did the clocks go back in the UK in 1967?
The clocks go back every year about the end of October.
Three clocks ring once at the same time After that e first clock rings after every 3 hours the second after every 4 hours and third after every 5 hours After how many hours will they again ring?
they never meet again at the same time
Does the whole world change there clocks every year?
No all the countries do not change the time every year.
