How does a potato clock work?
A potato can power a clock because all fruits and vegetables have an electric current in them, so the potato's act like a battery and supply the clock with electricity.
Do they still make electric grandfather clocks?
Yes many manufaturers still make electric grandfather clocks.
How accurate is the electric clock?
Electric clocks that plug in the wall (not battery operated) are probably the most accurate timepieces you can buy. These clocks count the cycles of alternating current. This make it a digital like clock and the electric company adds or subtracts cycles every so often to make it exactly accurate.
Do electric or battery clocks last longer?
Electric clocks will, by definition, last much longer, or until your mains power fails.
How do potato clocks use energy?
the juice make the energy work.
How accurate is The Clock?
Electric clocks that plug in the wall (not battery operated) are probably the most accurate timepieces you can buy. These clocks count the cycles of alternating current. This make it a digital like clock and the electric company adds or subtracts cycles every so often to make it exactly accurate.
How has the electric clock improved since it was made?
The first reliable electric clocks kept time with synchronous motors geared to the alternating-current cycles of electric power. They were replaced by quartz clocks that rely on the steady vibrations of a quartz crystal for higher accuracy. The next improvement was the 'atomic clock', which provides extremely accurate time by monitoring the electromagnetic radiation of cessium atoms, and synchronizes household 'atomic clocks' by radio transmission.

How did clocks improved?
first there were wind up clock, the battery opporated clock, and now electric clocks
How do quartz clocks work and what sets them apart from other types of clocks?
Quartz clocks work by using a small piece of quartz crystal that vibrates at a precise frequency when an electric current is applied. This vibration is converted into regular pulses that drive the clock's hands. What sets quartz clocks apart from other types of clocks is their accuracy and reliability. The quartz crystal's consistent vibration allows quartz clocks to keep time more accurately than mechanical clocks. Additionally, quartz clocks are typically more affordable and require less maintenance compared to other types of clocks.
How does the size of the potato affect the amount of electricity produced by a potato battery?
SUM RANDOM: larger potato, more current. ME: i thort it was smaller potato mor current ..... meh?
